My Background

The Scientific Developer

I leverage a strong academic foundation in Biotechnology alongside modern software architecture to transform biological science into practical, highly-scalable software products.

As a graduate in Biotechnology from Makerere University and the Founder of SAFE AI-AFRICA, I have focused my career on designing digital solutions that address biological threats, food-borne pathogens, and educational gaps. My professional journey combines real-world industrial Quality Control at Yo Kuku! with cutting-edge AI product development.

Whether building deep-learning tools for bioinformatics or digitizing manual HACCP/GMP processes to ensure food safety compliance, I strive to create high-performance systems that are visually clean, secure, and user-centric.

Scientific Research & Achievements

Thesis Project

Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) of Aeromonas Bacteria

Isolated from chicken sold in Kasubi Market, Kampala, Uganda.

This microbiology research aimed to isolate and determine the antibiotic resistance profiles of Aeromonas bacteria in retail raw chicken, identifying potential bio-risks to consumer health.

  • Identified multi-drug resistance phenotypes in isolated bacterial colonies.
  • Helped establish local benchmarks regarding poultry supply chain contamination.
  • Informed localized food hygiene guidelines and mitigation strategies for market vendors.
2nd Runners-Up

Synbioafrica Global Catastrophic Biological Risks

SBA-GCBR Student Case Competition across Africa.

Led a multidisciplinary team writing an exhaustive, award-winning biological outbreak response framework titled:

"CONTAINING AND MANAGING A NOVEL INFLUENZA VIRUS OUTBREAK IN AN AFRICAN COUNTRY: A COMPREHENSIVE STRATEGY"
  • Formulated synthetic biology biosecurity policy proposals and containment frameworks.
  • Modeled epidemiological transmission pathways using real-world African transport constraints.
  • Recognized by Synbio Africa for outstanding strategic policy writing.
