What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build practical, user-focused web platforms and software solutions where I can apply full-stack development, UX design, Linux administration, and developer mentorship.

I'm building SA Studbook's company intranet from scratch, including time and attendance reporting, activity tracking, travel logbook mapping, leave management, OCR-powered expense processing, and real-time contact tracking. I'm also leading the migration of 65 employees from Windows to Linux Zorin while providing personalised training, remote support, and device maintenance.

Previously, I created and led development of the Vertex Electronic Medical Record System at Partner4life and supported Dolfin POS integrations across eight major South African retail groups. I enjoy combining full-stack development, UX-focused design, practical problem-solving, and developer mentorship to deliver clean, impactful solutions.
