About Me

An innovative and passion driven developer offering vast experience in building, integrating, testing and supporting android applications for different versions of mobile and tablet devices on the Android platform using either Native Development (Kotlin/Java) as well as Flutter.

I always aspire to deliver robust, user-friendly and visually appealing mobile apps to enhance and ensure a smooth and interactive user experience.

Aside from mobile, I also build USSD Applications as well as dabble in a bit of backend work using NodeJS.
