Who am I?
I’m a first-year computing and mathematics undergraduate student at The Open University, based in London, with a strong interest in the intersections of artificial intelligence (AI) and aerospace.
I work as a Flight Software Engineer (FSW) at Xavier Space Solutions, where I contribute to developing embedded flight software and electronic design automation (EDA) for XavSat-1. The XavSat-1 is a PocketQube-class satellite and Ghana’s first privately developed spacecraft. The mission serves as a technology demonstration to validate domestically developed satellite subsystems in space. More information can be found here:

My long-term interests lie in optimal control and precision-powered descent for self-landing rockets and space-based transportation. I’m interested in how control algorithms enable reliable, autonomous flight in extreme environments, and how these systems might scale to future applications such as high-speed, point-to-point transportation.
Alongside this, I’m actively engaged with the communities at Imperial College London, including the Imperial College Space Society (ICSS) and the Imperial Planetary Robotics Lab (IPRL), where I’ve been able to learn from and contribute to student-led space and robotics projects.
Outside of my core work, I’m also interested in STEM education and content creation. I enjoy exploring ways to communicate complex ideas clearly, and I’m currently in the process of learning the Affinity Creative Suite and Blender. I’ve also been experimenting with Manim and hope to contribute to the Manim Community someday.
