What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build high-performance, accessible products where I can own frontend architecture, unify codebases, write tests, and collaborate closely with designers and backend teams to ship reliable user experiences.

I’m a Frontend Developer and founder who takes ownership of building MVPs and scaling products. As Founder & FullStack developer at Taaskly, I oversaw the initial MVP construction and partnered with designers, developers, and content creators to support a multi-product suite across Africa.

Previously, I led frontend teams and unified multiple repos, writing tests and breaking work into smaller units while delivering new features. I also convert complex Figma designs into functional, accessible pages, and I’ve used Domain-Driven Design with Nuxt.js and Vue Composition API to increase code flexibility and reduce error-prone code.
