I architect and deploy technology solutions that solve structural problems across Africa — from emergency response and healthcare access to workforce management.
As a founder and full-stack engineer based in The Gambia, I build systems that replace inefficient manual processes with scalable, automated infrastructure. My work spans SaaS platforms, AI-assisted healthcare tools, and civic technology serving thousands of users across the region.
Currently building AttendanceGM into a full HR and workforce management platform while leading product development across multiple ventures.
Focus areas: Backend architecture, systems automation, API development, and startup building.

Technology is validated by adoption, not by commits. AttendanceGM has moved beyond the codebase into real organizations that shape the product through daily use:
- WAVE Gambia — Onboarded with feature requests now shaping the roadmap: automated leave balances, performance management, and offline attendance for field staff
- Sal Consult Gambia LTD — Engaged for digital transformation, moving from paper-based attendance to automated tracking
- London Clinic — Consulted for workflow assessment and digital readiness evaluation
- Team Rising Stars — Active deployment partner, providing feedback that drives product iteration
- Legacy Foundations — Organizational client, contributing to the growing understanding of how Gambian institutions adopt HR technology
These are not just logos on a landing page. Every onboarding session, feature request, and candid conversation reveals how organizations actually operate — and what they need from technology built for them.
- #1 GitHub Commits — The Gambia (886+ contributions, leading national leaderboard)
- Top 5 Finalist — Hack4Gambia National Hackathon (2025)
- Hacktoberfest 2025 Contributor — Fixed critical documentation issues in Biopython, restoring access for thousands of researchers
- Deployed multiple production systems serving active users across The Gambia
- Co-founded two ventures: Blueprint Creators and Mandin Tech
Technology in Africa shouldn't be adapted from elsewhere — it should be built here, by people who understand the problems firsthand.
I build because manual systems still govern payroll, emergency response still relies on phone calls, and healthcare scheduling still happens on paper. These aren't just inconveniences — they're structural inefficiencies that hold back entire economies.
Every system I deploy replaces friction with function. AttendanceGM started as an attendance tracker. Today it's evolving into a complete HR platform because I listen to the organizations using it — not because a roadmap written in Silicon Valley said so.
I collaborate with founders, investors, and engineers building technology for emerging markets.
