About
With expertise spanning both frontend and backend development, I specialize in transforming ideas into reality through clean, efficient, and maintainable code.
I’m currently on the lookout for exciting opportunities where I can contribute and help create value. I like a good challenge, I like the rush that comes with trying to beat a deadline and most importantly, building and launching products that people use is genuinely the best feeling.
If you think I might be a decent fit for your team or organization please contact me here.
I recently built CollabHub and TechGather—platforms that empower developers to collaborate, discover tech events, and turn side projects into thriving businesses. I handled every aspect of both projects, from designing and architecting both systems to building, maintaining, and managing core components, ensuring they thrive both technically and beyond.
Previously, I was a Senior Frontend Engineer at B2BeeMatch, where I spearheaded the development of V2 of the platform’s frontend. My portfolio includes diverse projects including building the first versions of fintech platforms like Kukusend and CICOService Payments, and leading the Checkout team at Fincra in a full-stack engineering capacity.

Trust the process
Trusting the process is just being deeply rooted in the belief that your effort will pay off in the future even in times when it doesn’t seem like it. This belief might be hard to build at first but you can cultivate it by never losing sight of your goal...
Interests
When I’m not building; I read, go indie-alternative band hunting on Youtube or Spotify, watch anime, play tennis or watch Arsenal FC.
Built using Next.js and Tailwind CSS, drawing significant inspiration from this website’s design and functionality
