About

I am a software engineer studying for an MSc in Software Engineering at the University of East London, with a BSc in Computer Science from Bowen University.

I work across the stack: Node.js and PostgreSQL on the backend, React, Next.js and TypeScript on the frontend. I have shipped and maintained production applications for real clients, from a multi-service marketplace with payments and real-time chat to property platforms serving live traffic.

I am currently looking for software engineering internship opportunities in the UK.

Structured the codebase as an Nx monorepo across multiple services, and debugged production issues end to end, from missing Prisma relations on the seller dashboard to silent product filtering bugs.
