Experience

Not a résumé, but a record of missions. For every role: what it set out to do, what I contributed, and what it changed in how I build.

AltBase

Creator & Maintainer

A real, production platform for AltSchool alumni that I designed, built, and still run. It's a living directory and a place to collaborate, owned end to end, live and still improving.

Own the whole thing: product design, frontend, the data model, and keeping it live.
Reshaped the database and shipped real-time features while people were using the app, without breaking what worked.
Ship updates on a weekly rhythm, driven by direct feedback from the alumni community.

Badagry Tech Bridges

Founder & Product Engineer

A virtual non-profit I started to build a way into tech where there wasn't one, giving young people in underserved communities real mentorship and accountability so they can break in.

Designed a virtual, group-accountability model that reaches young people without waiting for a physical workshop.
Kept the curriculum focused on the foundations that matter most: thinking logically, building modern web apps, and finding your way around the industry.
Built a culture of discipline, ownership, and peer support from the ground up.

Independent

Product Engineer · Design & Frontend

Freelance and independent work, taking ideas from the first sketch all the way to a live interface, for founders and teams who want an engineer that thinks like a designer.

Designed and built products end to end, including Styleon, a fast typography tool for creators.
Built the frontend for Toritype, a Nigerian English and Pidgin speech-to-text product, and helped get the fine-tuned model deployed.
Partner on the discovery, not just the delivery, and speak up for the user when the technical calls are made.

Software Engineering

The reset. Where I stopped thinking of engineering as syntax and started thinking like a product owner: clear thinking, structure, and the person on the other side of the screen.

Built a foundation in frontend engineering and product thinking.
Learned to ask why before how, to sit with the problem before writing the solution.
Found the community and mentors who changed my path.

Systems, before software

Where the systems mindset was formed. Vehicle rewiring and mechanical troubleshooting taught me to follow a fault from symptom to cause, debugging before I knew the word.

Learned to respect how things are built and how parts behave under load.
Built the patience for systems that refuse to start, and the discipline to find the real fault.
Carried that hands-on, get-to-the-cause instinct straight into software.
