About Me

AI/ML Developer | Community Advocate

I am an AI/ML Developer based in Kenya with a foundation in Statistics and Programming. I build intelligent systems that solve real-world problems—I don't just write code, I design solutions that create impact and empower ecosystems.

My mission is to bridge the gap between cutting-edge AI research and practical deployment across Africa and beyond.

Outside of my work, I'm passionate about giving back to the community through speaking, training, and mentorship, helping others grow and succeed in tech.
