About me

Software that adds real value to your business.

Software engineer with 5+ years of experience, I design digital products end-to-end — from the business need all the way to production. Working across very different environments has built strong adaptability, a product-first mindset and a constant focus on quality and performance.

I started deep in mobile (Java, Kotlin, then Flutter) and grew into full-stack work — web front-ends, APIs and backends. Today I also lead product and engineering: CTO at Afrikukaa, and founder & CEO of Claudy Apps Studio.
