What I'm looking for

I seek a role contributing to AI or software projects where I can apply data annotation, software development, and rapid learning within a collaborative, growth-focused team.

I am a software developer with a BSc in Computer Science and training from ALXAfrica's Software Engineering Bootcamp, blending technical foundations with a hands-on, client-focused freelance background.

I have built and delivered solutions under strict deadlines, practiced data annotation on open-source datasets, and self-studied AI concepts, demonstrating fast learning, pattern recognition, and practical problem-solving.

I thrive in high-pressure and competitive environments, contribute strong communication and teamwork, and am available to start immediately to help organizations with software development, data labeling, and AI-related projects.
