01 — About Me

Code. Create. Innovate.

I'm a Computer Science student at the University of Zambia and a passionate developer who turns ideas into impactful digital products. My focus spans mobile app development, backend systems, and AI integration.

With hands-on experience building MVPs for fintech startups and media companies, I bring both technical depth and product thinking to every project. I love solving real problems for real people.

When I'm not coding, I'm creating Flutter tutorials on YouTube, TikTok, and Facebook — sharing knowledge with the next generation of developers.
