About

I am a purpose‑driven technologist and social entrepreneur focused on using digital systems to drive social change and economic growth across Africa. As a tech speaker, writer, and facilitator in digital skills, financial literacy, and social entrepreneurship, I help people build practical skills, make informed financial decisions, and move toward meaningful work. Over the past decade, I have helped start and grow award‑winning enterprises in health, education, agriculture, and the creative industries. Today, my work centers on three things: helping people identify and live out their purpose, fighting poverty through job creation and better financial choices, and strengthening STEAM education so communities can tackle bigger problems with confidence. Let’s connect if you’re interested in breaking poverty cycles, creating women and youth-centered solutions, scaling Environmental Sustainability, AI, digital learning, or transforming communities through tech and purpose-driven leadership.
