About
I'm Moussa, a Beninese Software Engineer based in Rwanda. I took what many considered an unlikely path, pivoting from Diplomacy and International Relations to Software Engineering. That career switch taught me something I carry into everything I do: the best learning happens when you're willing to start from zero.
I work as a full-time software engineer and contribute to nonprofits supporting African students and sport talents in their education.
I'm passionate about EdTech and AI and their potential to empower learners across Sub-Saharan Africa. Writing is how I process what I learn and give it back — every article here is something I wish I'd found when I was figuring it out myself.
Fun facts: I'm a certified IJF judo instructor, I taught myself English through YouTube, and I'm always one rabbit hole away from picking up something new.
