Journey

I’m Blessings — also known as MsWanjiku. I’m a developer and product thinker based in Nairobi, working at the edge where AI, fintech, health systems, and community infrastructure meet.

I care less about shiny demos and more about whether a system still works when the person using it has an uneven connection, limited paperwork, or a language the product never bothered to learn. My work starts with a simple question: who is left out — and what would it take to redraw the map?

That lens shows up everywhere I build: relationship graphs for farmers who don’t look “creditworthy” on paper, multi-channel maternal emergency flows, policy tools that answer in plain language, and WoTe — a women-in-tech community founded on access + community = representation.

I’m also a writer of the work itself. When I ship something that matters, I document the thinking — the tradeoffs, the data, the product decisions — so the system can be understood, audited, and built on.
