First of all hailing from Africa with lack of computing infrastructure posed a lot of great challenges to ascend to hackerdom especially with the scarcity of good programmers and lack of Internet access. Working with BRL-CAD in 2013 taught me a great deal especially working with the brightest researchers in this field. I believe my participation in GSoC this year would not only give me a great learning experience but also heighten my ambition of being a great Computer Science researcher in Africa. I see this project as both an intellectual challenge to impact change through open source software. | First of all hailing from Africa with lack of computing infrastructure posed a lot of great challenges to ascend to hackerdom especially with the scarcity of good programmers and lack of Internet access.
