SwitzerlandWhat I'm looking for
I am a social impact entrepreneur and technical communicator focused on creating inclusive pathways into the digital economy. I co-founded and lead a Swiss–Namibian social enterprise that trains and employs unemployed youth in data annotation and digital services.
I direct strategy, partnerships, and client development with a vision to create 1,000 jobs in Africa’s digital economy, and I co-founded an international nonprofit that has supported 100+ women from developing countries to graduate and find employment in tech.
In product and engineering education roles, I scaled a developer education team to reach 100,000+ developers, authored and maintained technical documentation and tutorials, and collaborated across product, marketing, and engineering to improve onboarding and adoption.
I have software development experience delivering customer projects using web technologies and agile practices, and I bring strengths in technical writing, content and curriculum design, and documentation tooling.
