About Me

Kevin's Profile Picture

I'm a self-taught developer from Kenya with a strong focus on applying AI and emerging technologies to solve real-world problems. Growing up in an underserved community gave me a deep understanding of the structural challenges around digital access and language inclusivity. I’ve since turned that insight into action by building scalable, locally-driven solutions—such as a Sheng–Dholuo language translator and a regional e-commerce platform designed to empower underrepresented communities. I'm now focused on expanding the impact of these technologies, and I'm actively seeking opportunities to collaborate with forward-thinking teams and investors aligned with inclusive innovation.

With expertise in Python, Java, PHP, typescript and Node.js, and frameworks like Django, I’ve built projects that resonate with real-world needs. I’m excited to contribute to initiatives like AI for African languages, bringing my skills and community insights to drive impact.
