Hello my Medium family!

Better late than awkward, right? Today, I will spill the beans about myself!

I’m Caroline Gakii, a simple lady from Kenya who’s always yearned to share her voice with the world.

I never imagined I’d take writing on Medium seriously, but here I am. Driven every morning by an irresistible urge to put my thoughts into words.

And you know what’s even more exciting?

Reading incredible pieces from talented writers like you. Yes, you! Never doubt your voice — it deserves to be heard.

Now, let’s get to it already!

My Writing Journey

My journey into the world of writing wasn’t exactly planned.

It was more of a serendipitous detour.

I began my academic career in technology. And thanks to the allure of innovation and the promise of a bright future in a rapidly evolving field, I was drawn to it.

But life has a funny way of guiding us toward our true calling. Somewhere along the way, I found that my passion wasn’t just coding or data analysis.
