What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build scalable software, data platforms, and real-time systems where I can improve reliability, performance, and outcomes in complex operational or healthcare environments.

I've delivered mission-critical billing, ERP, and fleet-monitoring integrations at BasiGo across Kenya and Rwanda. I reduced fleet-dashboard API latency by an estimated 60–70% and built real-time vehicle telemetry pipelines with sub-seven-second freshness.

At ICF, I built healthcare analytics platforms using Python and FastAPI, improving patient outcome forecasting accuracy by 15% and enabling 30% more targeted clinical interventions. I also helped deliver the PEPFAR Digital Health Inventory across 22 countries, reducing data-submission processing time by 60%.

Previously, I built software used by Kenya's Ministry of Health across 600+ healthcare facilities and improved system adoption by 70% for new healthcare partners. I work across Python, TypeScript, Node.js, React, cloud infrastructure, data pipelines, and machine learning.
