## About

```text
As a freelance Frontend Developer, I built and deployed three responsive web applications using Angular, React, Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS.

I integrated the M-Pesa Daraja API STK Push for e-commerce checkout, reducing manual payment verification by 90%.

I improved frontend performance and raised a Lighthouse score from 62 to 94 through code splitting and lazy loading. I also implemented state management with RxJS, NgRx Signals, and Redux Toolkit.

My projects include an Angular admin dashboard for tracking orders and payments, a property listings platform, and a mobile-optimized e-commerce landing page. I deployed applications on Vercel and Firebase with CI/CD using Git.
