Who I Am

PROFESSIONAL
SUMMARY

I am a BSc Computer Science graduate from the University of Fort Hare with strong programming, analytical, and problem-solving skills. Deeply passionate about software development, artificial intelligence, and software engineering.

Experienced in academic mentoring, collaborative research, and applying machine learning techniques to real-world challenges. I have attended astronomy-focused training programs, gaining exposure to radio astronomy computing and Big Data concepts in scientific research environments.

Motivated to contribute to innovative, data-driven, and impact-oriented technology projects — building intelligent systems, securing infrastructure, or creating elegant software that solves real problems.
