About

A probably caffeine addict developer. I have developed a robust skill set in various tech domains. My career began in 2020 as a Full Stack Developer, where I honed my expertise in JavaScript, Python, and modern frameworks like React.js and Angular. Transitioning to a Data Scientist role in 2022, I focused on machine learning and big data technologies. My experience as a Blockchain Developer at Crypto.com involved smart contract development and cryptography. In 2023, I briefly served as an IT Specialist at Kenya Ports Authority, managing IT systems. Currently, I work as a Freelance Artificial Intelligence Engineer, specializing in data manipulation, machine learning frameworks, and natural language processing. My diverse experience underscores my adaptability and proficiency in cutting-edge technologies.
