Founding Team

FOUNDER & Lead Architect

Yohanna Ayuba M.

Language & Translation

Beyond the technology, Yohanna brings a growth-minded approach to building SignLang AI into a sustainable company, not just a working prototype — thinking early about partnerships with broadcasters, platforms, and the Deaf community itself, and about how accessibility technology reaches the people who need it rather than staying a proof of concept. That combination — deep technical craft paired with a clear-eyed plan for scale — is what he brings to SignLang AI's mission of making Nigerian Sign Language visible everywhere it's needed..
