What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment that fosters innovation and growth.

As a dedicated software engineer, I am passionate about developing web and mobile platforms that create engaging user experiences. My expertise lies in understanding and delivering on clients' needs, utilizing technologies such as CSS, JavaScript, TypeScript, NodeJS (Express), ReactJS, and NextJS to build robust applications. I am committed to delivering high-quality code that meets business objectives, whether working on small projects or large-scale systems.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated strong project management skills, particularly in my current role at the African School of Economics, where I led the creation of a scholarship program database and redesigned the university's website. My collaborative approach allows me to work effectively with cross-functional teams, ensuring that I understand complex problems and find innovative solutions that align with business needs. I am eager to connect with organizations looking for a skilled software engineer to elevate their projects.
