who am i
i'm marlvin goremusandu, a software engineer, researcher, and builder.
i've interned twice at Oracle, co-founded SafariProtocol, and led the Google Developer Club at Jackson State University.
my journey started in zimbabwe, and it's taken me through cloud engineering, ai research, and blockchain innovation.
