I design secure, scalable systems that last.
About
I'm a full-stack engineer with 6+ years shipping end-to-end web applications — and a backend heart. I'm drawn to the hard problems: designing APIs and cloud infrastructure that scale cleanly, with a soft spot for authentication, financial systems, workflow automation, and clean data modelling. I'm just as at home building the React / Next.js interface on top.
I've shipped production features for real customers across travel, hospitality, digital media and enterprise SaaS — an airline ticketing platform, audit and HR systems, a financial reconciliation engine and more — owning the full delivery lifecycle from requirements and architecture through deployment and post-launch support.
I work mostly with .NET Core, Node.js, React / Next.js, TypeScript and Azure, and I care deeply about architecture, security, and DevOps. To me, great software isn't just clean code — it's reliable systems that keep delivering value long after launch. Off the clock, I create technical content, chase new tech, and game.

Selected work
My biggest project yet — a white-label digital-campus platform that runs the full student journey from application to graduation, built end to end (frontend + backend). 10+ integrated modules — admissions, student records, learning & content, assessments, CBT examinations, finance, accommodation, timetabling — unified in one branded app, with per-tenant theming, Keycloak single sign-on, Moodle for course delivery & CBT, and Paystack/Flutterwave payments.
