Hello! My name is Dagmawi and I enjoy creating tech solutions to my daily problems. My interest in software development started back in 2013 when I accidentally stumbled upon a batch programming ebook in one of my harddrives — turns out there's so much you could do on a black & white terminal!
Fast-forward to today, and I've had the privilege of working at multiple start ups, an event organizing company, a huge corporation, campus clubs and handled government projects. My main focus these days is building modern, minimal and powerful products and digital experiences at Dream Intelligence for the world to explore.

Enkokilish (እንቆቅልሽ) are Ethiopian/Amharic riddles. Riddles in Amharic are difficult, require in-depth understanding of the language and are often used to test one's knowledge and reasoning skills. So based on Enkokilish, we've made Enkokilish Bench to evaluate the ability of Large Language Models (LLMs) to understand, reason, and solve Amharic riddles. This benchmark is completely free and open-source from dataset to eval code, and to this visualization site.
