What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and allows me to contribute to impactful projects while continuing to grow my technical skills.

I am a passionate web and mobile app developer with a strong commitment to creating high-performance enterprise applications. My journey in software development has been marked by a series of impactful projects, including the development of the Next.js Creative Africa Nexus program, which supports the growth of African creatives. I have successfully collaborated with various clients, including renowned Kenyan musicians and organizations, to enhance user experiences and streamline processes.

As the founder of Ux-Craft Ltd, I have dedicated myself to mentoring the community in coding and innovation. My experience spans multiple roles, from leading product development for Kenya Airways during the COVID-19 pandemic to creating educational portals that empower women and control infectious diseases in Africa. I thrive in dynamic environments where I can leverage my skills in technologies such as TypeScript, React, and Flutter to deliver innovative solutions that meet user needs.
