About Me

I’m a passionate Bitcoin developer with a deep interest in the intersection of technology and finance. Initially, I was skeptical about digital currencies, but my perspective changed as I witnessed the ongoing advancements in Bitcoin. After participating in study sessions with Qala, I gained a deeper understanding of Bitcoin's intricacies, which fueled my desire to contribute to its development. As a Bitcoin user-turned-developer, I’m excited about the endless possibilities and innovations Bitcoin offers. What drives me is the fact that, despite its massive potential, only a few pioneers are actively working on developing Bitcoin. My goal is to contribute to the sustainability and evolution of this technology.

My Bitcoin and Lightning Building Achievements

During my time at Qala, I deepened my understanding of Bitcoin’s foundational principles and honed my programming skills tailored specifically for Bitcoin development. The supportive and collaborative environment at Qala played a huge role in fostering my growth. I also participated in the Build for Africa Hackathon, where I showcased my passion for building Bitcoin-based solutions for the African market, focusing on how Bitcoin can drive financial inclusion. Following that, I co-founded Mavapay, a platform designed to leverage Bitcoin technology to provide innovative financial solutions, with a strong emphasis on ease of use and accessibility. Currently, I work at Chaincode Labs, where I’m involved in various projects that aim to further the development and adoption of Bitcoin, including my contributions to the Bitcoin Dev Project.
