About
I teach Information Systems, Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, and emerging technologies at Daystar University. I hold a Master of Science in Information Systems and a Bachelor of Science in Applied Computer Technology from USIU Africa. My teaching is guided by a strong academic foundation and practical experience in digital transformation within the SACCO and fintech ecosystem. I also conduct research through SIMElab Africa, focusing on social media analysis, misinformation, digital behavior, and data driven decision making.
