Priscilla Kalilombe

Hi, my name's Priscilla.
I'm thrilled to have you here!

About me

I started out by learning different programming languages, then used Ruby on Rails to create a discussion platform with country-specific forums that brings people together throughout Africa.

Using Rails and JavaScript, I have built features ranging from content aggregation to real-time messaging, keeping performance and reliability top of mind. I prefer to break down complex problems and build streamlined systems, continually striving to learn and implement new tech to improve user experience.
