Optimism is, in the first instance, a way of explaining failure, not prophesying success


What do I do?

I lead the Intelligence engineering org at Chipper Cash, a fintech building accessible financial services for Africa.

My teams leverage cutting-edge machine learning and data infrastructure to tackle fraud & abuse, personalization, experimentation, and more under a full-stack philosophy;  hear me talk about it .

Previously, I worked on the Geo Search Ranking team at Google where I drove applied ML projects that hit billions of users across Search, Maps, and Assistant.

Where am I from?

I've lived and traveled throughout the world.
