Current UW student studying Computer Science and Education,
passionate about building inclusive, intuitive, and student-centered tools and experiences.
I love helping others learn—whether through mentoring, teaching, or creating designs and
applications that make complex ideas easier to understand.
I’m always exploring new frameworks and approaches that improve
accessibility, clarity, and user experience. My goal is to combine my
background in CS and education to create learning tools and technologies
that support students from all backgrounds.
An interactive game that builds empathy for accessibility barriers through firsthand experience. Players navigate four stages simulating real disabilities—blurry text, color blindness, low motor control, and semantic confusion. Built with Flutter, each stage violates specific WCAG principles and ends with educational reflection cards. Achieved a System Usability Scale score of 78.4 across 8 participants.
A research-driven website centering African values in AI ethics discourse. Analyzed 20+ research papers to highlight themes of communalism, justice, and self-determination often overlooked in Western AI frameworks. The platform makes African AI ethics accessible to students, researchers, and practitioners, challenging algorithmic colonialism and promoting more equitable conversations about AI development.
As Lead Mentor, I trained and supported new mentors, taught HTML/CSS/JavaScript, and helped high school students explore computer science through hands-on projects.
A web app that lets users find routes between buildings on UW’s campus. I worked on implementing search algorithms and designing the user interface.
Contributed to research on inclusive philanthropy at Fred Hutch, analyzing how donor engagement intersects with community-driven initiatives.
Completed a digital skills pre-apprenticeship program focused on software tools, professional communication, and mentorship in computing.
