I built Spark Box, a responsive idea-sharing platform with a React frontend and Express/MongoDB backend. I implemented cursor pagination, TanStack Query caching, and optimistic upvotes.

As a Freelance Frontend Developer, I build and deploy production-ready web applications, integrating REST APIs and optimizing client-side data flows. My projects include GitHub repository analytics, a CoinGecko-powered crypto dashboard, and a full-stack portfolio.

At Edo State Polytechnic, I taught frontend engineering and mentored aspiring developers in modern frontend architecture, Context API state management, and deployment workflows. I also create technical video courses and open-source code repositories through IDTechnol.
