I am a software developer and data & records manager with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from Gulu University. I build mobile apps, websites, and web applications with a strong focus on practical solutions that solve real problems for businesses and communities.
I previously worked at Kakebe Technologies in Lira as a Software Developer, Intern Supervisor, and Instructor, where I contributed to software delivery and mentorship of upcoming developers. I now work as a Records Manager at Gospel Operation Africa in Kampala, while also freelancing and building personal projects.
Beyond code, I am a committed follower of Jesus Christ who serves children and youth through ministry. Working with kids from slum communities has taught me that data is never just numbers — it reflects real lives and real needs. I bring that same heart for service, integrity, and compassion to everything I do, whether it is managing financial records, teaching children to read, or building software.
