"What I love most about being a technologist, is it's more like being an artist. You have the computer as your canvas. There is the science to technology, but also there is the creativity to technology. When you combine those two, there is nothing you can't achieve.”
Meet Mbarak: this is his story.
Mbarak is a Full-Stack Engineer based in Nairobi.
Orphaned as a child, Mbarak transformed his life when he found his vocation in technology. As a teenager, watching his friends gaming, Mbarak became fascinated with computers before pursuing Computer Studies at University.
Over the past decade, Mbarak has climbed the career ladder to become a successful tech leader, not only ensuring effective delivery, but providing mentorship to the wider tech community. Founding the Kilifi Tech Community with his close friends, Mbarak regularly mentors up-and-coming technologists across Kilifi County.
Outside of technology, Mbarak’s passion lies on the road, riding motorbikes across Kenya.
