Developing digital solutions with a focus on elegant functionality

About Me

I am a passionate and self-driven software developer based in Accra, Ghana. I enjoy building things that live on the internet, whether that be websites, applications, or anything in between. My goal is to always build products that provide pixel-perfect, performant experiences. I have a strong passion for learning and sharing my knowledge with others. I am a firm believer in the power of community and collaboration, and I try to incorporate that into my work whenever I can.

I have knowledge and experience in using tools and languages like TypeScript, JavaScript, Next.js, React, TailwindCSS, Node.js, Express.js, Prisma, Firebase, and MongoDB to build responsive and robust web applications. I also have experience in using tools like Figma and knowledge in UI/UX design principles to design and build beautiful and functional user interfaces.
