Accessibility Developer | Building Tech for Seniors | Founder @ SafeNana | 20+ Elderly Users Tested

I am a self-driven software developer focused on building technology that improves digital accessibility for underserved communities, especially elderly and digitally inexperienced users.

Despite limited resources, I have independently:

• Built and deployed multiple live projects
• Validated them with real users
• Iterated based on structured feedback
• Documented my work publicly

I don’t wait for opportunity — I build capability first.

“You shouldn’t invest in me because of nationality — you should invest based on return.
I’ve already demonstrated execution through building real software projects, learning independently, and documenting my work publicly.
That shows I don’t wait for opportunity — I create it.”
