30+

Projects Delivered

Web applications, eCommerce platforms, multi-vendor marketplaces, mobile apps, and fintech systems built with React, Laravel, Node.js, Shopify, and WordPress.

How I Create Impact

Not just code. Strategic thinking that connects technical execution to business outcomes.

01

Business First, Code Second

I start by understanding what success looks like for your business. Revenue targets, conversion goals, user experience requirements. Then I design technical solutions that actually achieve them.

02

Performance is Non-Negotiable

Slow sites lose money. I optimise for Core Web Vitals, implement caching strategies, and architect for scale from day one. 90+ Lighthouse scores are the baseline, not the goal.

03

Security by Default

Zero security incidents across 30+ projects isn't luck. JWT authentication, input sanitisation, secure API design, and infrastructure hardening are built in, not bolted on.

04

SEO & Discoverability Built-In

Semantic HTML, structured data, proper heading hierarchy, fast load times. Your site should be found by search engines and AI assistants alike.

05

Ship Fast, Maintain Forever

I write code that other developers can understand, extend, and maintain. Clear documentation, meaningful commits, and architecture that doesn't require a PhD to debug.

06

Communicate Like a Human

No jargon dumps. I explain technical concepts clearly, set realistic expectations, and keep you informed without requiring you to chase me.

What I Do Differently

Lessons learned from 5+ years of software development.

Right-Sized Solutions

I use the simplest technology that solves the problem reliably. Complexity is a cost, not a feature.

Ownership & Accountability

I own what I build. Clear documentation, proper handoffs, and availability for post-launch support are standard.

Clear Communication

I ask questions early, provide regular updates, and surface blockers before they become problems.

Professional Experience

5+ years of full-stack delivery across agencies, startups, and enterprise clients.
