What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a full-stack role where I can own end-to-end builds with Laravel and React, improve performance and SEO, and ship AI-enabled, real-time features—while collaborating in agile teams.

I’m a full-stack developer with 3+ years of experience delivering enterprise-level web applications and high-performance WordPress solutions. I enjoy taking complex ideas end-to-end—architecture through deployment—while keeping performance, SEO, and user experience at the center of every build.

Recently, I architected and developed a comprehensive Learning Management System (LMS) from scratch using Laravel and React.js. I built robust backend infrastructure, a responsive TypeScript/React frontend, payment processing with Paystack/Stripe, gamification, real-time chat with attachments, and AI-powered features using OpenAI for pronunciation assessment, student hints, quiz generation, and intelligent tutoring assistance.

I also strengthen growth outcomes through SEO and optimization. As a WordPress developer and lead technical resource, I developed custom themes from Figma designs, improved site performance with advanced optimization (including lazy loading, CDN, and query optimization), and delivered responsive training and portfolio sites with analytics integration. I’m energized by agile collaboration and by mentoring others through hands-on instruction.
