Applied AI Engineer
I design and build systems that solve hard problems at scale.
Got into tech through the growth side of things. Spent years learning how to scale products, not just build them. At Condia, we grew to a million users with zero ad spend, just systems compounding on each other. That experience made me realize I was more interested in building the systems than running them. So I went deeper into engineering, started working seriously with AI, and now I build intelligent products: agents, pipelines, things that do real work in the world. I also co-founded Datum Africa, which is trying to open up African data for researchers and builders everywhere.

"I helped scale a product to a million users. Then I asked myself: what if an agent could do that itself?"
Currently Building
AI agent that automates SEO research, content pipelines, and outreach. Scale without a growth team.

Most companies know AI can help. They just don't know where to start or how to build it right. That's what I do.
