I am a pre-doctoral student at the Software Languages Lab in the Department of Computer Science, Faculty of Sciences and Bio-Engineering at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel. Before joining the VUB, I pursued a master at Makerere University, Uganda.
I am funded by a PhD Fellowship of the VLIR-UOS under a North - South collaboration partnership between VUB, KU Leuven and Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology in Kenya.

I am currently working on low code tools and visual programming for smart agriculture applications.
