About Me
Who I Am
I'm a passionate Full-Stack Software Engineer with a strong foundation in cybersecurity. With a Bachelor's degree in Computer Forensics Science and extensive training through ALX Software Engineering, I bring a unique perspective to building secure, scalable applications.
My journey spans from low-level systems programming in C to modern web development with React and Next.js. I've led migrations, architected databases, and implemented accessibility standards that ensure everyone can use the technology we build.
Beyond coding, I'm a competitive chess player who represented my university at national championships, bringing strategic thinking and patience to every project I undertake.
What I Do
Backend Development
Architecting robust APIs and databases with Django, building secure authentication systems, and optimizing performance for scale.
Frontend Engineering
Creating responsive, accessible interfaces with React and Next.js, implementing modern design patterns and state management.
Security & Accessibility
Implementing WCAG 2.1 standards, securing applications against vulnerabilities, and ensuring privacy-first architectures.
