ABOUT ME

Software Developer and a mentor

I am an experience software developer who builds great web services ranging from robust web API's to creating impressive, interactive and responsive web interfaces. I also have experience working with python and its microframework Flask as well as Django.

The technologies I have had to work with have exposed me to a plethora of experience building user centered services and these experiences includes building high performant services using Elasticsearch for full text search, Redis for caching, Graphql, React/Redux, VueJs.

I think scalability, performance, ease of use, security etc. when building services and these guide my decisions and action.
