ABOUT

My passion for technology and innovation began in my senior year of high school when I used to watch a program called TechTalk with Sol.  Despite growing up in a small town, I taught myself how to code through self-study. Fast forward to today, and I've had the privilege of building software for  businesses, startups, and university.

These days, my main focus is on developing mobile technology-based products and impactful projects at  African To Silicon Valley Foundation. I particularly enjoy working with cross-functional teams where I can apply my problem-solving skills. In my free time, I also participate in community leadership and mentoring students at AASTU. 

When I'm not in front of the computer, I am interested in playing music. I am quite good at the guitar and enjoy playing Ethiopian scale on the piano.
