Biography

Major: Software Engineering and Finance
Graduation: Fall 2025

I am Modeste Nare, hailing from the vibrant nation of Burkina Faso, nestled in West Africa. As a senior in Software Engineering and Finance, I'm passionate about bridging the gap between technology and finance to drive impactful change. With fluency in three languages—my cherished tribal tongue, Moore, alongside French and English, plus a sprinkle of Arabic comprehension—I thrive in diverse linguistic landscapes.

Beyond academia, I relish social engagements, cherishing moments with loved ones, and fostering connections within my community. Whether sweating it out at the gym or embarking on new adventures, I prioritize holistic well-being.

One of the resolute ambitions that make my heart beat is to return home and become a cornerstone of progress for my country and community, especially my beloved family.

Burkina Faso's name itself, derived from our rich cultural tapestry (72 languages), reflects our essence—"Land of the proud and honest people." I carry this pride in my roots, eagerly anticipating the chance to contribute to our collective ascent. Modeste Nare, affectionately known as "The African International," is poised to make waves and uplift Burkina Faso onto the global stage.
