What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to grow my skills in a collaborative environment, focusing on innovative projects that challenge my problem-solving abilities.

I am a results-driven Python/Django developer with over three years of experience in designing, developing, and deploying full-stack web applications. My expertise lies in backend systems, RESTful APIs, and database management, with a strong focus on creating scalable, secure, and high-performance systems. I am passionate about writing clean code, developing reusable components, and embracing agile workflows to enhance productivity and project outcomes.

In my recent internship at Inawo Company, I assisted in developing backend systems for a school management platform using Django. I wrote and tested API endpoints for online banking and customer management, collaborating closely with front-end developers to ensure seamless integration of user-facing components. My freelance work has allowed me to develop and deploy web applications for small businesses and academic institutions, where I built RESTful APIs and optimized database queries, significantly improving performance.
