About

I’m a motivated and detail-oriented Computer Science student from Machakos, Kenya, with hands-on experience supporting IT systems, managing networks, and working with databases. I enjoy solving problems in real-world environments and I’m comfortable troubleshooting connectivity issues, helping with server and infrastructure support, and assisting with configuration tasks like VoIP and domain/network connectivity.

I also build web-based applications and projects that combine clean front-end interfaces with reliable back-end functionality. I’ve developed a Pharmacy Management System using React, PHP, and MySQL, focusing on features like inventory and sales management, user authentication with role-based access, stock monitoring, low-stock alerts, and expiry tracking. I’m a quick learner who values communication, teamwork, and customer service while aiming to grow professionally through practical experience.
