AgriLink Nexus

Creating AgriLink Nexus felt like assembling an all-star team, not for a heist, but for something even more rewarding—transforming agriculture. 

I wanted a place where farmers wouldn’t just work harder, they’d work smarter. 

A platform where tech meets tradition, where agriculture isn’t just a profession, it’s a shared purpose.

Here’s how we brought AgriLink Nexus to life:

✦ Collaborative Knowledge Sharing 
Farmers, enthusiasts, and experts came together to share tried-and-true techniques. It’s like having a library of agricultural wisdom, filled with real advice, real solutions, and real results. Every member contributes, ensuring that this collective knowledge only grows richer over time.

✦ AI-Powered Crop Management 
Enter CropSmart AI—an intelligent assistant. With tailored crop calendars & specific support, our AI takes care of the heavy lifting, optimizing tasks so farmers can focus on what they do best. It’s smart, efficient, and makes farming simpler for everyone involved.

✦Creating the AgriLink Knowledge Hub 
Think of it as a vault of optimized practices and preserved knowledge. The AgriLink Knowledge Hub is where everything comes together, shared and strengthened for future generations. It’s more than a resource; it’s a legacy for today’s farmers and tomorrow’s.

And the impact? It’s powerful:

✦ Boosted productivity with AI-driven crop management that’s transforming how we farm.
✦ A connected community of agri-urbanites and collaborators, sharing insights and working together toward a common goal.
✦ Sustainable agriculture in action, with urban farming practices that support local food production and reduce environmental impact.

AgriLink Nexus isn’t just another platform—it’s a movement. From urban farming initiatives to hands-on community events like our Harvest Festivals, we’re growing smarter, together.

University of Chicago

Over the past 2+ years, I’ve had the privilege of serving as an Instructional Assistant for the AI & Data Science for Leaders program at the University of Chicago. 

This experience has been all about helping 150+ business leaders bridge the gap between AI theory and impactful, real-world strategy.

Now Here’s a sneak peek at what we cover:

✦ Leadership & Data as a Competitive Edge: Leaders learn how data-driven strategies create business advantages, setting them apart in a competitive landscape. Something that is more important that you can imagine.

✦ AI Transformation: We dive deep into what it takes to build and lead AI-powered teams, exploring the nuances of AI and ML implementation.

✦ Real-World Applications of AI as a Service: Through hands-on use cases, participants get firsthand experience with the business potential of AI, from predictive analytics to automation.

Core Skills: A.I. decision science | Data Strategy | GenAI | Business Transformation

I should say, helping leaders adopt and leverage these skills has been a rewarding journey—because in today’s world, knowing how to lead with AI is as essential as the tech itself.

Tokyo University of Agriculture

It’s kind of like being handed the keys to the Sahara desert... and asked to make it bloom.

When Tokyo University of Agriculture approached me to work on a project in Djibouti, there was no hesitation. I was all in. No blah blah Just To Do it.

Imagine this: a $4.5 million project, 30+ researchers, and the goal? To uncover the greening potential in one of the most challenging climates on earth. The stakes were high—500,000+ lives potentially impacted by climate risk.

What happened next?

✦ Built deep learning models for land surface fault detection using geospatial images (think satellites and drones working overtime).

✦  Developed simulations to locate underground water sources—essential for semi-arid areas like Djibouti.

✦ Trained 10+ young scientists in applied AI for agriculture, turning knowledge into real-world solutions.

Oh wait, did we make a difference? Yes. We. Did!

Safe to say, Djibouti has a future in climate resilience...

And that is when you see Emerging Tech making the impact we want to see.

P.S. My tech stack? ArcGIS, Python, R, drones, and a whole lot of determination.

Want to learn more? Pack your bags for Djibouti. I might just show you around.

It’s kind of like being given the keys to explore, innovate, and create real-world impact.

During my 5 years as a PhD and MSc Applied Data Scientist in Tokyo, I focused on applying data science and emerging technologies to make a difference for low-resource communities.

Here’s how it unfolded:

✦ Emerging Tech for Good 💡

Leveraged data science and deep learning to improve production processes for underserved communities, resulting in 5+ research publications that shared our insights globally.
Leading International Research 

✦ As principal investigator
I led a collaborative research project with 3 universities, securing $140,000+ in grants from META, NODAI, and the Japan Government. This work resulted in 5+ publications and 10+ conference presentations, bringing our advancements to the global stage.
Mentorship and Global Collaboration 

✦Guided 5+ graduate students in data analysis and research, while annually leading 20+ undergraduate students in an intercultural exchange program between Japan and Tanzania, fostering cross-cultural partnerships and learning.

These years were about more than research; they were about using data science to drive meaningful impact, mentoring the next generation, and building international connections. 

It was an experience I’m excited to bring into every new challenge ahead.
