## About

```text
At LodgeFlow, I rewrote a booking-hold payment Lambda from about 19 seconds to under 3 seconds and built encrypted TTLock smart-lock integrations that handle 1,000+ locks in under two seconds. I also designed entitlement and payment infrastructure for six SaaS pricing tiers using Paystack and Flutterwave.

Across CVspan, Decluttaking, and The Edge Cooperative Society, I've built backend services, REST APIs, authentication, RBAC, payment workflows, and database-backed platforms. I work end-to-end on AWS serverless architecture, event-driven systems, API design, infrastructure-as-code, and performance tuning.
