Professional Bio
Discovered programming through a desktop computer as a child. That curiosity led me to graduate from AAU in Computer Science, train intensively at Africa to Silicon Valley (backed by Google), and earn recognition from a Google Staff Engineer as a "fantastic engineer and true full-stack contributor."
