I work at the intersection of cloud infrastructure and design — deploying production applications on AWS while also crafting the user interfaces people interact with.

On the cloud side, I’ve taken two applications from code to live deployment: Zentreeca on Amazon Linux EC2 (Node.js, Vite, Nginx reverse proxy) and Lerniva, a Next.js app, using PM2 and Nginx with proper EBS volume setup. Both involved real-world problem-solving — SSH/SCP transfers from Windows, dnf vs apt quirks, and directory structure bugs that don’t show up in tutorials. I’ve also worked through structured IAM training (Groups, Roles for EC2, MFA) and resolved a custom policy issue for self-service MFA setup.

On the design side, I’m currently building PetrolNow, an on-demand fuel delivery app for the Nigerian market, handling everything from wireframes and onboarding flows to glassmorphism UI effects in Figma.

My background in Political Science (Kaduna State University) gave me strong research and communication skills, which I’ve carried into how I document and present technical work — including tutor-facing presentations on my IAM and deployment projects.

I’m interested in roles — whether cloud/DevOps, UI/UX, or hybrid product roles — where I can apply both skill sets to solve real problems for a team.
