About

Kinshasa to Stirling

I grew up in Kinshasa and study Business and Finance at the University of Stirling — predicted First Class, graduating 2027. I build AI pipelines that run inside real businesses: a commodity exporter in The Gambia, a supermarket group in the DRC, a real-money student fund in Scotland.
