What I'm looking for

I’m looking to contribute to real-world systems development within a collaborative team.

I built the Tutor Matching System, a database-driven Django application designed to connect students with suitable tutors. I implemented student and tutor profiles, role-based functionality, and database structures for subjects, availability, bookings, and reviews.

For the HEET Services Provider (S.A.R.L.U.) Website, I developed a Django web application with database-driven features and a user-facing interface. I developed the project end to end, from requirements through implementation and refinement.

As an IT & Technical Support Intern at Razor Tech Uganda, I diagnosed and maintained computers and peripherals, resolved hardware and software issues, and assisted with website updates and database management.

I graduated from Cavendish University Uganda with a Bachelor of Computer Science, classified Second Class Upper. I’m interested in contributing to real-world systems development within a collaborative team.
