02 About

Crafting software
that performs.

I'm a full-stack software engineer with five years of experience building production systems across fintech, logistics, and SaaS. I care deeply about performance, correctness, and code that's built to last.

Beyond the web, I build Pine Script trading indicators — ICT / Smart Money confluence systems, backtesting engines, and autonomous market agents. Finance and code is where I love to live.

Rooted in Nairobi's growing tech scene, I specialize in M-Pesa integrations, East African market infrastructure, and developer tooling built for local teams.
