A computer science professional with experience in developing technology systems to enhance well-being and quality of life.
Currently,
I'm a graduate student and a Mastercard Foundation Scholar at the University of California, Berkeley. During this professional development phase, I plan on building on my computer science academic background and professional experience by focusing on the relationship between software, information, management, and social impact. I will be specializing in these areas:
I am proficient in full-stack engineering, desktop app development and database management tools. I have intermediate knowledge of mobile app development. My programming stack include:
My interest in computing coincides with my enthusiasm for the ongoing Information Age. Information is a powerful tool in empowering, transforming lives, and shaping the world. I long for a world where personalized and high-quality information is accessible to everyone. This is what has shaped my professional journey.
I have had the privilege of working at a social tech enterprise, where we developed a web application that solves an information puzzle around empowering Kenyan communities to become data storytellers and active advocates for improved water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services. It is a personal mission which I am honored to contribute to.
I'm playing a part in the Information Age by creating the tools and technologies that make this revolution possible. Looking forward, I'm eager to blend advanced software engineering and machine learning techniques into my information expertise and contribute to communities that need them the most.
Away from my tech pursuits and passionate ideas, I get stoked when taking adventures to new places. I'm happiest when I'm learning (especially anything metaphysics or psychology). I'm a space nerd. I have a diverse taste in music, all the way from traditional classical musics to modern house fusions. Here's what I'm currently playing:
