I'm currently studying design & computer science at Stanford.

I love using both design & development to make things that are fun & functional.

I also enjoy mountain biking & do it competitively.

I grew up in rural Uganda.

My parents devoted their careers to public health work in remote villages & I grew up working alongside them.

At Stanford, I study design & computer science. I'm also on the leadership team for the Black Student Engineers Club.

I try to put a piece of myself into my work: assets from scratch. Illustrations. Custom fonts. I hand drew this font I'm using right now.

I enjoy bodybuilding, mountain biking & embroidery.
