I'm a Kenyan full-stack developer who builds and maintains custom ERP, HRMS, e-commerce and hospitality systems for clients while managing their infrastructure, security and backups. I studied BBIT with Networking at Strathmore University and enjoy working across the stack with Python/Django, JavaScript, CSS and MySQL, deploying projects on Linux servers. Outside of code, I care about community and leadership through the 15th Student Council, the Kenya Red Cross Chapter and the Hult Prize programme.
I hold multiple industry certifications across AWS, Cisco and Fortinet, including AWS Academy Cloud Foundations, CCNA: Introduction to Networks, Cisco IT Essentials and several Fortinet NSE cybersecurity badges for FortiGate operations and threat awareness. You can view the full badge collection on my Credly profile.
