My story,
short version.
I grew up in Addis Ababa and started writing code because I wanted to make the apps on my phone behave differently. That turned into a computer science degree at HiLCoE, then four years of building real products for real people.
Along the way I built a food delivery app for a startup in Addis, travel dashboards for a team in Lagos, a plant reminder app that lives on the Play Store, and a browser game about coding by vibes. I care about the small stuff: the tap that feels right, the loading state nobody notices, the layout that quietly makes sense.
In 2025 I moved to Weimar for a Human Computer Interaction programme, which is a formal way of saying I want to understand why people do what they do in front of a screen. I also make videos about building software, because explaining a thing is how I learn it properly.
Outside of that: art galleries, long walks in unfamiliar cities, and an ongoing argument with myself about which side project to finish next.
