Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolIan Karanja is a frontend developer and fourth-year Computer Science student with a decade of hands-on experience building user-centered web and mobile solutions across React, Laravel, and cloud-backed stacks. Currently crafting a personalized multilingual audioguide for museums at PoCo, he combines accessibility-first design (e.g., Voxify text-to-speech) with pragmatic enterprise exposure from an OSS internship at Safaricom.

Comfortable across Python, PHP, and Dart, Ian also freelanced and supported product and social media improvements for small organizations, demonstrating an ability to move between code and stakeholder needs. Based in Tallinn, he brings a global perspective informed by Kenyan roots and real-world automation work at scale.
