My story

From Cameroon to code

🌍

The beginning

Born in Cameroon, I moved to the United States in 2016 and continued my education through high school and college. I never imagined I would end up in tech.I first saw myself as a laboratory technician in healthcare.

💡

The pivot

In my final year of high school, I chose to explore technology. That led me going to Century College for Computer Information Technology, then to Metropolitan State University.switching from Computer Science to IT, which aligned far better with my strengths.

🚀

Building things

I built real projects: TeamUp, CampusTrade, and EduLion,a bilingual school management platform for Cameroon, because technology must solve real problems for real communities.

🤝

Beyond the screen

I have worked as a caregiver, Walmart stocker, reading tutor with Ampact, childcare provider, and IT intern. Every role built patience, adaptability, and the ability to connect with people from all walks of life.
