01 — About

A bit more about me

I'm a Level 300 B.Sc. Computer Science student at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology in Kumasi, Ghana. My work is anchored in three words: God, transformation and impact.

I build software for African contexts — from campus transport to fintech to education — and lead Aethelis, a technology solutions studio I founded to turn ideas into shipped products. I care about systems that hold up in the real world: patchy connectivity, real users, real constraints.

Alongside code, I'm active in ministry with TPM Lifespring and Asher Ministries, and I play keyboard and piano — producing music in Ableton Live.
