I am a front-end developer based in Nairobi with over 2 years of experience building responsive web applications using React, JavaScript, and Tailwind CSS. My stack also includes TypeScript, Node.js, and MongoDB for full-stack applications. I specialize in creating intuitive user interfaces, integrating APIs, and optimizing performance to deliver seamless user experiences. Recently, I developed a movie streaming app using React, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS, with MongoDB for storage and Google OAuth for authentication. I deployed the app on Vercel, achieving a 15% reduction in load times through optimized rendering. At wHTa Networks, I integrated REST APIs and built responsive interfaces, achieving 95% test coverage with Jest. As co-lead at GDSC JKUAT, I mentored 20+ developers in React and JavaScript, helping foster innovation and skill growth. My internships at Andela and Accenture were invaluable to my professional growth, honing my skills in test-driven development and API design. I’m passionate about emerging tech and eager to contribute to impactful web solutions in Nairobi or remotely (+3 UTC).
