Every Great Developer Had a Mentor — Do You?

After 15 years of building, failing, learning, leading, and evolving in the tech space, I’m excited to officially announce the launch of my 2025 Software Engineering Mentorship Program — a personalized journey designed to guide entry-level, intermediate, and senior developers toward career transformation and impact.
This program is a culmination of everything I’ve learned across a decade and a half of hands-on engineering, architecture, product development, and leadership in the tech industry.
My Journey: From Beginner to C-Suite Executive
Fifteen years ago, I started out just like many others — curious, ambitious, and uncertain. I wrote my first few lines of code without fully understanding what they meant. But over time, with the help of mentors, self-study, real-world projects, and relentless curiosity, I grew.
- I evolved from a beginner developer into a professional software engineer.
- I climbed the ranks to become a senior engineer, then a principal engineer, and ultimately a senior solutions architect.
- I’ve helped architect systems for startups and large organizations.
- I’ve co-founded and built multiple businesses, serving in executive roles (CTO, Founder) and leading high-performing teams.
- Today, I consult for companies across commerce, fintech, banking, agriculture, and education, building scalable software systems and mentoring tech talents across Africa.

Why Mentorship?

That’s what I want to be for you. A bridge between where you are now and where you could be.
Whether your goal is to land your first job, build scalable systems, lead tech teams, or launch your own product — I’ll help you get there with clarity and direction.

This isn’t just about writing better code — it’s about becoming a better thinker, builder, and leader.
