What I'm looking for

I am seeking a remote developer role where I can deepen technical skills, work on high-impact projects, and grow within an agile, collaborative team.

I am a junior full-stack developer trained at Moringa School with hands-on experience building full-stack applications using React, Node.js, Django, and Python. I have delivered real-world projects including a Task Manager App with JWT authentication and secure APIs, an 800+ hour Bank Management System with a dynamic financial dashboard, and freelance integrations that demonstrate my ability to design scalable databases and responsive UIs.

I combine technical skills in JavaScript, Python, MySQL and MongoDB with creative strengths in graphic and 3D design using Adobe, Figma and Maya to produce user-centered interfaces. I am seeking a remote developer role where I can deepen my technical expertise, contribute to high-impact projects, and grow within an agile team.
