I am a scientist, engineer, and educator committed to advancing human potential through data, technology, and knowledge infrastructure. Over the course of my career—from building high-performance bioinformatic data systems to leading regional training programs—I have come to see that the most transformative impact lies in empowering others, particularly in Africa.
My passion lies in equipping the next generation of African talent with the skills, confidence, and tools they need to thrive in data-driven environments. Whether through launching multi-country fellowships, designing context-aware digital learning modules, or mentoring young scientists, I strive to build bridges between global standards and local realities. I believe that with the right support, African researchers, developers, and analysts can set new benchmarks—not just follow them.
My approach blends technical rigor with systems thinking, program design, and a deep commitment to equitable access. I am especially interested in how data science, responsible innovation, and open collaboration can unlock new models of development, learning, and discovery across the continent.
If you’re building toward a future where African expertise is central—not peripheral—I’d be glad to connect.
