Aspiring web developer with a focus on backend technologies.
What I'm looking for
I'm a passionate web developer based in Nairobi, Kenya, with a Bachelor's degree in Information Technology from the Technical University of Kenya. My journey in technology began with a strong foundation in web design and development, where I honed my skills in both frontend and backend technologies. I have experience working on various projects, including an eCommerce system for Bonita Makeup Store, where I led the backend development efforts.
In addition to my technical skills, I have a commitment to sharing knowledge as a digital skills trainer in the Ajira Digital Program. I have successfully mentored students and facilitated digital skills training, helping others to navigate the tech landscape. My experience managing a team for the Past Paper portal project at the Technical University of Kenya has further developed my leadership and project management abilities.
