About

Passionate about building solutions that expand access, trust, and opportunity across the world. My journey began working at Mckinsey in the US and then transitioned into EdTech, where I explored how technology can transform learning — and has since evolved into helping small businesses trade safely across borders. I believe innovation should bridge gaps, not widen them — whether in classrooms or in commerce. Let’s connect to collaborate on ideas that empower people and systems across Africa. mauaosoro@alumni.upenn.edu
