ING.

Tired of keynotes that sound good but deliver zero action? I deliver talks and mentoring that actually move the needle — grounded in 10+ years shipping real products.

The Speaker

A VOICE FROM
THE COAL FACE

Event organizers and leaders want speakers who've done the work, not just studied it.

That's me. I'm a full-time freelance developer and AI architect who's led frontend for the UNDRR's global Mangrove Design System, built enterprise CMS for University of Ghana, and shipped live AI products for international clients.

Everything I share on stage comes from production code, failed experiments, successful launches, and the unique view of building world-class tech from Africa.

Your audience gets practical, no-BS answers — tailored to their reality, whether they’re students dreaming big, corporates chasing transformation, or governments navigating AI risks.

What I Speak On

SIGNATURE
TOPICS

Five core topics, each adaptable as a 20-minute keynote, 45-minute talk, or 3-hour workshop.

01
AI & The Future

AI in Africa: From Hype to Real Advantage

Your team or students overwhelmed by AI buzz but unsure where to start? This session cuts through the noise: real African use-cases that work today, practical first steps, and strategies to create (not lose) opportunities.

Outcomes: Attendees leave with a clear 3–6 month action plan, reduced fear, and excitement about Africa’s edge in the global AI race.
02
Web & Tech

The Modern Web: Tools & Mindset to Stay Ahead

Developers and leaders stuck on outdated stacks while competitors ship faster with AI assistance? I show what’s actually used in production at top orgs today — and how to adapt without constant rewrites.

Outcomes: Teams know exactly what to learn next, product managers make smarter tech decisions, and developers feel future-proofed.
04
Corporate

Digital Transformation That Doesn't Fail

70% of transformation projects waste time and money. Based on real NGO, government, and enterprise implementations: why most fail, choosing tools for your maturity level, safe AI starts, and building internal capability.

Outcomes: Decision-makers get a failure-proof framework, teams adopt change faster, and organizations see actual ROI instead of shelf-ware.
05
Design & UX

Design Thinking for Non-Designers

Leaders approving designs they don’t understand, leading to poor user adoption? Learn to evaluate UX like a pro, spot ROI in good design, and use simple frameworks for better decisions — no Figma required.

Outcomes: Business/product teams make confident, user-first choices that boost conversions, satisfaction, and growth.

Mentoring

1-ON-1
MENTORING

I've been where you are. Starting out in Accra with big ambitions and limited runway, figuring out how to get international clients, build a portfolio that stands out, and turn a passion for code into a real career.

Mentoring is the most direct way I can pay that forward. I work with a small number of mentees at any time — developers, designers, and aspiring tech entrepreneurs — helping them get unstuck and move faster.

Career Path & Strategy
Freelance vs employment vs building a product. How to position yourself, what to charge, who to target.
Portfolio Reviews
Honest feedback on your portfolio, case studies, and how you present your work to potential clients.
Technical Skill Direction
What to learn, in what order, and why — based on what the market actually pays for right now.
Getting Your First (or Next) International Client
Practical tactics that have worked — not generic advice.
