After 10 years of successfully leveraging tech to scale high quality education, I'm now leaning into the transformative potential of Machine Learning, where I am: 
- average 95.7% in my Data Science Master's program (70% of coursework completed) 
- teaching Data Science fundamentals on a daily basis at Umuzi.

*** Some of the EdTech Highlights
- Launching a WhatsApp chatbot with Praekelt.org, UNESCO and the National Department of Education which reached 150 000+ teachers with much needed support and resources during the Covid lock-down. 
- Powering up the Presidential Youth Employment Initiative which saw 300 000 youth (aged 18-35) employed in Schools as additional support during the Covid era. 
- Leading product development on The Allan gray Entrepreneurship Challenge, and growing it from a pilot with just 5 participating schools into a pan-African operation reaching more than 2000 schools across 3 countries.
