The story so far

From tinkering with BASIC scripts to shipping distributed systems, here's how I found my groove.

Origin Story

Learned to debug on family hardware in Porto-Novo, fell in love with community meetups, and kept stacking skills through Google Developer Groups.

University Years

Graduated in Computer Science at UCAO with research on resilient web architectures and started freelancing for NGOs.

Right Now

Split my time between client launches, MonsterUI contributions, and mentoring juniors on automation best practices.

Principles I work by

The filters I run before pushing code, presenting work, or joining a team.

Accessibility is table stakes

Every UI ships with semantic structure, keyboard coverage, and inclusive copy.

Documentation beats memory

Async hand-offs, Loom walkthroughs, and living runbooks keep teams confident.

Measure what matters

Every build tracks the metric it's meant to elevate, from demo requests to MTTR.

People over process

Rituals should energize collaboration—not drain it—so I keep meetings light and context heavy.

Toolbox & focus areas

I thrive at the intersection of product, design systems, and platform automation.

Frontend & DX

React, Astro, Webflow, Tailwind, Playwright, Vitest.

Backend & Cloud

Python, FastAPI, Supabase, AWS, Cloudflare Workers, Docker.

Product Ops

Notion, Linear, Retool, Zapier, analytics instrumentation, QA ops.
