Hi, I’m Fike.
I’m a lawyer turned product manager, the founder of The Kumu Circle and Fike’s Index, and I spend most of my energy on Africa’s growth.
I care about:
- AI access for all, and ensuring it’s used in the most beneficial and human-driven way.
- Building true community and enabling economic freedom for African women.
