Data is the new oil. It's valuable, but if unrefined it cannot really be used. It has to be changed into gas, plastic, chemicals, etc to create a valuable entity that drives profitable activity.

About Me

I’m a highly motivated and results-driven Data Scientist with a strong foundation in Computer Science, Cloud Computing, Data Engineering, and Agile project delivery. I’m passionate about transforming raw data into intelligent, impactful solutions that solve real-world problems and drive measurable innovation and growth.

My technical toolkit includes Python, SQL, R, Excel, Flask, Firebase, PostgreSQL, Git/GitHub workflows, AWS cloud services, Docker, Kubernetes, and project management etc. I’ve led and contributed to impactful projects in healthcare, agriculture, cybersecurity, automation, and digital forensics. A notable achievement is developing an AI-powered plant disease detection system to support climate-smart farming and enhance food security across Africa.

I thrive in collaborative, forward-thinking teams and excel at turning complex data into clear, actionable insights. I am always eager to apply my skills in environments where data can make a real difference—helping organizations grow while creating lasting societal impact.
