// 01 · BACKGROUND

Engineering with discipline, scale, and clarity.

I turn complex business ideas into production-ready AI applications, automation systems, and SaaS products.

I love turning complex ideas into clean, reliable tools that people actually enjoy using. My work sits right at the intersection of practical AI engineering, intelligent automation, and solid full-stack development.

Whether I'm connecting an AI model to a company’s private knowledge base, automating repetitive data tasks with n8n and Python, or engineering a complete multi-user SaaS platform in FastAPI and React, my focus is always the same: make it fast, keep it simple, and make sure it doesn't break.

I also care deeply about lifting other developers up. As a technical instructor at The RootHub HQ, I mentored and guided over 30 aspiring engineers through Python, backend APIs, and live debugging sessions—helping them build the confidence to ship their own capstone projects.

When it comes to user data, I believe trust is earned at the database level. Whether building financial audit tools or school management platforms, I design systems where privacy, tenant isolation, and regulatory compliance are baked in from day one—not treated as an afterthought.

Currently, I am completing my Bachelor of Science in Information Technology through Ensign College and BYU-Pathway Worldwide, while collaborating with founders to bring ambitious software ideas to life.

07

Mobile Apps

Fast, intuitive apps for iOS and Android that people genuinely enjoy using. Engineered to feel smooth in the hand, keep working even when connection drops, and sync data seamlessly with your backend.

// 03 · SERVICES

Engineering services for startups & businesses.

Whether you need a custom AI tool, an automated workflow, a cross-platform mobile app, or a complete web platform built from scratch, here is how we can work together.

AI Agents & Custom Assistants

I turn slow, manual processes into smart AI assistants that can answer user questions, search company knowledge bases, and trigger real tools—built with strict guardrails so they never hallucinate or go off-script.

  • Multi-step AI agents that can trigger tools and external APIs
  • Private document search (RAG) that cites real source pages
  • Reliable integration with OpenAI, Claude, and open-source models
  • Custom chatbots tailored to your brand voice and specific domain

Workflow Automation & n8n

Stop wasting hours manually copy-pasting data between apps. I connect your CRM, spreadsheets, email, and databases into automated background workflows that quietly do their job 24/7.

  • Custom n8n workflow design, setup, and reliable hosting
  • Real-time webhook bridges that sync data across tools instantly
  • Automated document triage, lead routing, and invoice processing
  • Error monitoring and auto-retries so your automations never stall

Full-Stack SaaS & Web Applications

Do you have an idea for a software product or need to rebuild a legacy tool? I build full-stack web applications from the database architecture all the way to a clean, secured, and fast user interface.

  • Rock-solid backend APIs written in Python (FastAPI / Django)
  • Clean, snappy frontend interfaces using React and modern CSS
  • Multi-tenant databases where every customer’s data stays strictly private
  • User authentication, role permissions, and payment checkouts (Stripe/Paystack)

APIs & Data Collection Pipelines

Do you need data gathered from web sources, or an API built so your mobile and web apps can communicate? I engineer fast, dependable endpoints and data pipelines that don't crash under load.

  • Fast, well-documented REST APIs with automatic request validation
  • Custom Python scrapers that collect and organize public web data
  • Automated data cleaning pipelines that output structured, ready-to-use tables
  • Smart caching strategies to keep server costs low and load times instant

Mobile App Development

Do you need an iOS and Android app that your users actually enjoy keeping on their home screen? I build cross-platform mobile apps that feel fast, work seamlessly offline, and sync clean data straight to your backend without battery drain or glitches.

  • Cross-platform mobile apps for iOS and Android with a single clean codebase
  • Offline-first data caching so users never see broken screens without internet
  • Push notifications, secure device authentication, and in-app payment flows
  • Smooth animations, native feel, and seamless real-time backend synchronization

Selected Work & Case Studies

A closer look at systems I've architected from scratch—built for real people, tested under pressure, and engineered for long-term reliability.

Hybrid Tenancy SaaS Active Development

AI-Assisted School Management System

A multi-tenant school operating system designed for African classrooms, helping teachers draft lesson plans and speed up grading while keeping student records strictly private.

Built with a flexible data model that gives smaller community schools affordable shared hosting with row-level database security, while large institutions get dedicated private databases. AI assists teachers by drafting lesson plans and suggesting feedback, but educators always review and approve everything before students see it. Fully compliant with African privacy laws like POPIA and NDPR.

Python 3.11 FastAPI Next.js 15 PostgreSQL 16 Redis 7 Docker Compose
Financial Governance SaaS Demo & Testing

AlumFinance — AI Financial Governance Platform

A transparent financial management platform for alumni associations and non-profits, replacing chaotic spreadsheets with an uneditable audit trail.

Designed to eliminate financial arguments in volunteer groups. Every transaction is written in permanent digital ink so records can never be quietly altered, spending requires sign-offs from multiple executives, and smart AI reads 40-page bank statements in seconds—with volunteer treasurers always in total control. The AI is strictly prohibited from doing math.

Enterprise AI Platform Live App

Nexus-7 Task Force — AI Project Intelligence

A developer-first project board that uses AI to break large goals into realistic daily tasks, spot team burnout before it happens, and balance workloads in one click.

Born out of frustration with clunky, bureaucratic project management tools. Nexus-7 combines a snappy real-time Kanban board with AI models (Gemini and DeepSeek) that break complex initiatives into bite-sized steps. Includes a dynamic 0–100 delivery risk engine, a 1-click Smart Rebalance algorithm that prevents overworked developers, and instant sync with GitHub pull requests.

Quantitative ML & Prediction Production Pipeline

Project Oracle — Football Prediction Engine

A quantitative sports prediction engine that runs 117 mathematical formulas across 10 analytical angles to find value in match odds without emotional bias.

Blends quantitative finance techniques with deep sports analytics. Collects match statistics, pitch tracking feeds, and market odds every 30 minutes, feeding them into a 7-step statistical pipeline that models goal probabilities, team fatigue, and referee bias. Uses strict walk-forward backtesting without lookahead bias and fractional Kelly bankroll risk management.

// 05 · PHILOSOPHY

How I build systems.

Three simple rules that guide how I design software, write code, and protect user data.

01

Build for the Real World, Not Just the Demo

Software shouldn't just look slick in a 2-minute video demo—it has to survive messy real-world inputs, slow internet connections, and spikes in traffic. I write clean, defensive code and thorough automated tests so your application continues to run reliably long after launch day.

02

AI With Real Purpose, Never for Hype

Just because an app can call an AI model doesn't mean it should. I only bring in AI where it solves a real headache, saves hours of manual work, or delivers clear answers. And I always put strict guardrails in place so the model never hallucinates numbers or goes off-script.

03

Security & Privacy Baked In From Day One

Trust takes months to build and seconds to lose. When users trust your application with their finances, school records, or customer data, privacy can't be an afterthought patched on later. I engineer data isolation, encrypted logins, and tamper-proof audit trails directly into the database from the very first commit.
