## About

```text
I restored Ajeoba Agro Exchange from a non-functional production codebase and now maintain its live marketplace. I refactored the code, replaced deprecated packages, and ship features across the frontend and backend.

Across my projects, I’ve built SaaS, marketplaces, and AI products, including CoreLabsStudio’s AI video workflow and Vamvamvam AI, an autonomous social media operations product. I’ve also developed WhatsApp commerce tools for African markets.

I founded and grew the GDSC / AFIT Student Tech Community, with programs in software engineering, embedded systems, and collaborative projects. My work also includes backend APIs, cloud deployment pipelines, and ongoing maintenance of live platforms.
