What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, encourages collaboration, and offers opportunities for professional growth in software development and UX design.

I am a versatile Software Engineer and UX Designer with hands-on experience in frontend development, UI/UX design, and full-stack web development. My expertise lies in building responsive, user-friendly applications using modern technologies like React, Python, and Firebase. I thrive in collaborative environments, working with cross-functional teams to solve complex problems and deliver high-quality solutions that enhance customer satisfaction.

During my recent internship at Safaricom PLC, I collaborated with a team of software engineers to enhance an existing web application, ensuring seamless user experiences for over 6,000 internal users. My role involved translating design wireframes into functional web pages while participating in Agile workflows to deliver solutions on time. Additionally, I have freelanced as a web developer, where I designed and developed full-stack applications, achieving 100% client satisfaction through tailored solutions.
