Biography

I manage the User Experience & Web Strategy team for Howard University and helped launch the People Profile website that you are now viewing.  If you are Howard faculty or staff - then I want you to create and publish your profile too! Please also encourage our Howard colleagues to do the same.

Curious about my names? Kweli is Swahili for “truth," and Zukeri is a combination of two Swahili words and means “self-determined strength and creativity.”

Learn about my Ph.D. journey at Howard in this interview, and in this Howard Magazine letter to the editor by Rin-rin Yu.
