I build AI-powered web and mobile products that solve practical business and user problems.
KenyaWhat I'm looking for
I'm building digital products at the intersection of software engineering, artificial intelligence, and creative technology. I design web applications, mobile solutions, and scalable systems that address real problems and create measurable impact.
At NairoBits Trust, I train full-stack development students in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, and real-world project delivery. I provide personalized mentorship, portfolio reviews, interview preparation, and career guidance to help learners build confidence and access technology opportunities.
I also led project administration and compliance for the S-BIZE initiative, coordinating reporting and documentation across NairoBits Trust, Empower and Serve, and the London School of Economics. I consolidated partner inputs, facilitated structured coordination meetings, and tracked compliance milestones to improve delivery clarity and donor accountability.
Beyond engineering, I've worked as a filmmaker at GOLYPOON Storytelling, contributing through directing and camera operation. I'm focused on advancing AI-powered development, intelligent systems, automation, and modern product engineering while using technology and storytelling to empower people.
