Olamide Olosunde

Hi, I'm Olamide (Ola)! I'm a Software Engineering & AI student at Dakota State University, graduating in May 2027. I build full-stack and AI-powered apps and ship them: Bimo turns any document into a chatbot, and Reffa is live on the App Store and Google Play. Off the keyboard I've led DSU's Student Senate and tutor students in CS & math. I'm looking for software engineering opportunities. Scroll down for my work, or reach out below!
