You describe yourself as a “creative developer.” What does creativity mean to you in the world of software development?

How important is community to your journey both personally and professionally?

You explore philosophy & spirituality on your podcast/blog (DBlogs), while also building platforms like Ruthful Hearts and Dagmawi Babi Jobs that help others. How do these interests shape your work in tech, and how do you define real tech-driven impact?

From Fidel Pops (educational & cultural) to niche apps like StatiCall and Telegram Community Gallery, you’ve built some unique projects. What inspired these ideas, and do you have any fun or unexpected side projects you’ve especially enjoyed creating but that not many people know about?

You were studying two degrees while building all these projects. How do you manage your time and avoid burnout?

What role does your faith play in your work as a developer and creator?

From your days at Bahir Dar Academy to now  what were some of the biggest turning points in your journey?

What advice would you give to young developers in Ethiopia or beyond who are just starting out in tech?

Lastly, what message would you like to share with the dreamers, developers, and believers listening to this podcast?

And... we've reached the end of Episode 8✨
A massive thank you to Dagmawi Babi for deploying so much wisdom. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go find a semicolon I lost three days ago. 😅


Hope you all enjoyed it!❤️
