Software Developer & Data Scientist | AI for Social Impact
Building accessible, gender-responsive technology for African communities with Flutter, Python, and AI.
As a software developer and growing data scientist from Uganda, I'm driven by a mission to build technology that creates access and fosters inclusion. My work lives at the intersection of software engineering and data science, where I use my skills in Python, AI, and Machine Learning to turn complex data into real-world solutions.
I thrive on tackling challenges like accessibility in African languages and ensuring online safety. I am also passionate about empowering the next wave of African tech talent especially women and youth, through mentorship and training. My long-term goal is to launch a social enterprise in Uganda dedicated to developing ethical AI for critical sectors like healthcare and finance.
