About Me

I'm a Computer Science and Cybersecurity double major at Grambling State University. I'm originally from Harare, Zimbabwe and I'm currently in my second year of college. I'm passionate about software engineering, cybersecurity, and game development, and I love working on projects that challenge me to solve real-world problems using code and my creative imagination. As a first-generation college student, I am driven by a strong desire to create technology that empowers communities, particularly by providing freer access to education.

Beyond academics, I enjoy making video games, playing soccer, and waching anime. My goal is to continuously grow my skills, gain relevent technical experience, and make an impact in the tech industry.
