About Me

Data Analyst & Software Developer

I am a detail-oriented professional with skills in data analysis, UI/UX design, software development, graphic design, project management, problem-solving, public speaking, leadership, and sales. I have hands-on experience in research, fintech, and innovation, contributing to projects that combine technology, business development, and data-driven decision-making.

I've contributed to projects with organizations such as Damax Solutions, BBC Media Action, Nutrition International, Muhimbili University, FinHub, AIESEC Tanzania, and Buni Hub, gaining hands-on experience in digital research, product development, and community-driven solutions. These experiences have deepened my expertise in stakeholder engagement, agile teamwork, and results-oriented execution.

Adaptable and always learning, I thrive in fast-paced environments and value inclusive, impactful design. As digital ecosystems grow across Africa, I am committed to building tech that supports equity, sustainability, and resilience, aligning with global goals and championing youth-led innovation for a better future.
