Education

  • Dedan kimathi University of Technolgy Bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering, Mechanical engineering 2020 – 2024 I built a solid foundation with basic
    coursework, programming, and
    workshop skills, then applied that
    knowledge through CAD,solidworks,
    labs, and practical projects like
    mechanism design and an internship.
    This led to advanced analysis, system
    design and finally specialized studies,
    project management, and a capstone
    thesis— culminating in a professional
    portfolio showcasing technical and
    problem‑solving abilities
