Building, teaching, and tinkering in Nairobi.
I'm a full-stack developer. My days are spent navigating the complexities of React, C#, Java, JavaScript, and Go. Beyond the code, I'm an open-source contributor and a tech volunteer, helping organizations in Nairobi leverage technology for good.

About Me
I've always been driven by curiosity. Whether I'm tinkering with a new framework, exploring an emerging technology, or getting lost in a good book, I'm constantly looking for ways to expand my horizon.
When I'm not in front of a terminal, you'll probably find me gaming, writing, or deep in conversation about the latest tech trends.
I run a tech blog at code.geohack.top where I write technical insights, opinions, and document what I learn. Drop by my guestbook to say hello!
