I am an Agricultural and Biosystems Engineer based in Nairobi, Kenya π°πͺ β one of East Africa's fastest-growing hubs for e-mobility and clean energy innovation.
My work sits at the intersection of renewable energy systems and electric mobility infrastructure β applying rigorous engineering principles to build solutions that are robust, scalable, and ecologically sound.
At SafariCharge, I focus on bridging the gap between legacy power grids and the demands of modern energy infrastructure, designing systems that are both economically viable and future-proof.
