About
Driven by a curiosity for technology and a commitment to solving real-world problems, I’ve spent my career building systems that bridge human potential and machine precision. I have led and contributed to projects that drive million-dollar revenues, impact millions of users, and redefine accounting, fintech, healthcare, and e-commerce landscapes from startups to enterprise solutions. Beyond development, I am deeply passionate about automating day-to-day boring stuffs. As the Founder of Rackles, an AI research lab building an intelligent workforce that automates business operations across Africa. My focus is simple: to build technology that not only works, but thinks — creating tools that help people and businesses operate at their highest potential. When I'm not engineering the future, you'll find me spending time with my dog or watching a great sci-fi movie.
