What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build practical mobile and full-stack products where I can grow through production work, solve real user problems, and contribute in an Agile team.

I've shipped features across four client mobile applications at Appimate, including ELIDZ-STP Connect, The Voice Lounge, and CitizenTV. My work spans React Native, TypeScript, Expo, Supabase, REST APIs, authentication, real-time data, and app-store delivery.

I resolved a critical production blank-screen issue and built Appimate's Business & AI Assistant, integrating conversational AI into the product suite. I also developed TracePay, a financial inclusion platform with hidden-cost detection and isiXhosa voice narration that won the UCT Fintech Lab Hackathon.

I'm a BCom Information Systems graduate with Cum Laude honours, four hackathon wins, and experience tutoring programming and information systems students. I enjoy building practical software under pressure, from mobile products to C# and ASP.NET platforms.
