Strategic technologist and software engineer specializing in data, AI, and secure, scalable systems.
KenyaI am a strategic technologist and software engineer with a decade of cross-functional experience and four years focused on architecting and delivering robust software solutions. I combine systems-level thinking with practical expertise in data engineering, AI/ML, and cybersecurity to build resilient, well-designed systems.
I've led cross-functional projects, developed client-facing web and internal systems, and delivered open-source Java projects and bespoke applications, including HRM, stock-taking, and energy-monitoring solutions. I emphasize operational excellence, observability, and data integrity while translating technical insight into business value.
I maintain a learning mindset through continuous professional development in cloud, security, and modern web technologies, and I enjoy mentoring, contributing to open-source, and creating technology that improves user outcomes and system reliability.
