ABOUT ME

Hey I'm Moctar Sako. I'm from the BRONX, and that's a big part of how I approach everything I do. I'm a Mech E and Comp Sci student at CUNY City Tech who enjoys building things that work in the real world. I've always been the type to take things apart just to understand how they function, then try to rebuild them better.

I've had experience at Bloomberg, where I learned what it looks like when systems run at scale. Now I'm an AI Product Engineer Intern working across SWE and product at Success Academy Charter Schools on the AI Labs team, building AI products for EdTech that support real classrooms across over 55 schools in NYC.

When I'm not building, you'll find me playing soccer, exploring a new café somewhere in the city, or planning my next trip. I like being in new environments, meeting new people, and seeing how different places think and move. It keeps me curious.

Paris was special. The Eiffel Tower really has an aura in person. I watched PSG play Paris FC and saw my favorite player growing up, Ousmane Dembélé, score a great goal. I also visited Versailles and had an incredible meal at Waly Fay, a Senegalese restaurant where I randomly met a server from the same neighborhood as my mom back home.
