I am a highly motivated and skilled individual with a strong background in Business Management and Information Technology. I have a Bachelor of Business Management and IT (Hons) from Catholic University in Zimbabwe, a BCom in Computer Science and Information Systems (Hons) and an MSc in Computer Science and Information Systems (currently in examination) from Nelson Mandela University in Port Elizabeth. My expertise includes data analysis, software development, machine learning, and research in the field of smart spaces and smart environment simulation. My publications include "Extended SESIM: A Tool to Support the Generation of Synthetic Datasets for Human Activity Recognition" and "A Hybrid Ensemble Approach to Human Activity Recognition using a Synthetic Dataset." My experience as a Business Owner, researcher and Technical Support Specialist has provided me with a wide range of skills that I am eager to apply in the field of digital growth, where I am currently working as a research associate. I am excited to bring my expertise and passion to this project and contribute to the identification of the underlying mechanisms and drivers of growth in the ICT sector.
