About Me: I’m Timothy, a Nairobi-based tech journalist and driving enthusiast who grew up during Kenya’s digital transformation. I learned to navigate Nairobi traffic while watching the country leap from analog to M-Pesa, giving me insight into how technology reshapes mobility. My weekends split between testing apps and spirited drives through Kenya’s highlands and coast roads.

Expertise: My Information Technology background helps me decode automotive tech for enthusiasts who want substance over marketing. I cover Kenya’s evolving mobility landscape – from ride-sharing disruption to how local mechanics adapt to computerized engines. I focus on technology that matters to drivers, whether navigation systems or how electric vehicles handle Kenya’s terrain.

Qualifications: My work appears in East African publications covering tech and automotive topics. Startup accelerators like iHub feature my mobility startup analysis. I’ve interviewed Silicon Savannah pioneers and BRCK innovators building connected car systems. My garage serves as a testing ground for OBD-II diagnostic tools and smartphone mounts, combining automotive experience with IT education from Kenya’s tech scene.
