About Richard Karanu:

As a dedicated software developer with a history of successful engagements, I have honed my technical

startup setting. My passion for leadership is matched by a commitment to providing innovative solutions,
underpinned by a foundation of reliability and accountability. This experience has equipped me with a unique
perspective and a readiness to excel in environments that demand both rapid development and strategic
foresight.
