Full Stack Developer delivering React/Node apps, payments integration, and reliable technical support.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Full Stack Developer and ICT professional who designs, develops, and deploys modern web applications. I bring a strong technical foundation in data management and system administration, with a focus on building scalable solutions that work in real-world environments.
In my freelance work (2022–present), I’ve designed and deployed 10+ responsive web applications using React.js, Node.js, and modern JavaScript. I’ve built and maintained scalable MongoDB and MySQL databases, and I’ve implemented mobile payment integration using M-Pesa (Paybill, Till Numbers, Pochi la Biashara) and PayPal for e-commerce and fintech experiences.
I also build functional, user-focused systems such as a real-time Traffic Alert Management System with interactive mapping and alert notifications. On the infrastructure side, I configure RADIUS-based Wi‑Fi hotspot networks, maintain WordPress sites (custom plugins and themes), and manage web hosting, domain registration, DNS configuration, and professional email setups.
Before and alongside development, I strengthened my support and operations mindset through ICT Support work at Kenyatta University and admin/data roles at Mega Ltd. I’m confident troubleshooting hardware/software and network connectivity issues, documenting resolutions, and collaborating effectively with teams using Git, Slack, and Zoom.
