Message

At Microloan Foundation Zambia, I lead product development for internal systems used by field staff, including a cash collection platform and Ofleet. I built Ofleet as a digital workflow for fuel, repairs, payments, and fleet operations, replacing a manual cash-based branch process.

I developed Katanga, a school management platform, at Think Zambia Foundation, covering enrollments, payments, assessments, and reporting. I also built internal tools and React Native apps, and integrated Flutterwave and Zanaco Bill Master payment APIs.

Across these platforms, I’ve implemented role-based access controls and audit trails for operational workflows. I redesigned database schemas and queries to reduce latency and cut infrastructure costs by 90%, and set up Jira-based support tracking that reached a 99% SLA score.

I co-founded Quotify, a construction pricing intelligence platform selected as a Top 10 finalist in the Standard Chartered Foundation's Women in Tech Zambia Cohort 6 Accelerator. I also founded and built Izani, a live wedding-planning platform, and have mentored developer interns at Microloan Foundation Zambia and Think Zambia Foundation.
