I'm a Technical Trainer and IT Lecturer at Kenya Christian Industrial Training Institute (KCITI), where I teach Operating Systems, Computer Networking, Structured Programming in C, and Microsoft Office Applications.

I hold a BSc in Applied Computer Technology (Distributed Systems & Mobile Computing) from USIU–Africa and am currently enrolled in ALX Africa's Data Engineering and Cybersecurity (SOC Analyst) programs.

My passion lies at the intersection of education, technology, and local impact — building systems that tackle real challenges like youth unemployment and FinTech in Nairobi.
