Senior AI & Full Stack Engineer with 5+ years of experience building scalable, production-ready systems. Passionate about AI-driven products, clean architecture, and empowering the next generation of developers.
Crafting digital experiences with purpose
I'm a dedicated software engineer with a passion for building elegant solutions and empowering others through technology education. Currently working at Aspire Software / AllTrust Networks, where I develop fintech solutions using microservices and monolithic architectures.
Beyond coding, I'm deeply committed to tech education. As a Lead Full Stack Engineering Trainer at the United Nations Digital Hub, I mentor aspiring engineers through project-based learning, covering everything from MERN stack to AI-assisted development.
My journey has been shaped by meaningful collaborations — from training robotics and AI with UNICEF to founding Devitty, where we build custom software solutions and host events to nurture the next generation of developers.
