About Me

/* who am i */

// A bit about my background
I'm a results-driven Software Developer with 4+ years of experience in designing and implementing innovative health information systems. My journey in tech began at the University of Malawi, where I earned my Bachelor of Science in Computer Science with minors in Statistics and Mathematics.

With expertise in full-stack development, data integration, and epidemic modeling, I deliver scalable, efficient, and impactful solutions. I'm particularly passionate about optimizing data management workflows and ensuring robust cybersecurity measures in healthcare systems.

// Current professional focus
Currently working at Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation, where I spearhead the development and deployment of Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) for the Malawi Government under CDC (PEPFAR), impacting 50+ hospitals nationwide. I'm also involved in epidemic modeling at the Center for Epidemiological and Mathematics Research.

// When I'm not coding
Outside of development, I'm pursuing my Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) certification and continuously exploring new technologies in healthcare informatics and public health initiatives.
