South Africa

Developer, maintainer and creator

I build complete software systems, integrate enterprise platforms, maintain public developer tools and produce instrumental music.

Professional introduction

I am a software developer based in South Africa, focused on mobile, web, cloud and enterprise systems. My work connects React Native, Expo, TypeScript, C#, Python, Microsoft Azure, Microsoft Graph and Power Platform into practical tools that solve operational problems.

I also maintain open-source developer tooling, with current focus on Expo, React Native and native Android integration through expo-draw-over-apps.

Working approach

Understand the business problem before choosing the architecture.

Break systems into small, testable components.

Document setup, tradeoffs and operational behavior.

Deploy with privacy, maintainability and real usage in mind.

Improve based on feedback, debugging and production constraints.

Outside development

The portfolio keeps music production, technical writing and digital experimentation visible without mixing them into enterprise case studies.
