I build secure, AI-powered financial and academic web tools with React, Node.js, and payment integrations.
What I'm looking for
I've built Phinance, an AI-powered finance advisor that helps users track income and expenses, understand spending patterns, and make better financial decisions.
Using React, Node.js, MongoDB, Firebase Authentication, Recharts, Gemini AI API, and Brevo SMTP, I developed secure financial workflows with personalized spending breakdowns, high-expense alerts, and authorization middleware.
I'm also building Tidy Up, an exam-preparation tool that merges PDF questions while removing duplicates and helps users eliminate duplicate files from folders. I integrated PayHero and M-Pesa subscriptions and used TypeScript and Express for a high-performance backend.
During my attachment at The National Treasury, I configured local networks, deployed enterprise software, maintained institutional hardware, and resolved technical issues with cross-functional IT teams. I'm pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science at Machakos University.
