Who I Am

About Me

I'm a First Class Honours IT graduate from the Islamic University in Uganda, now based in Blantyre, Malawi. My passion lies in building software that solves real problems — from civic tech tools for smallholder farmers to clinical mobile app prototypes.

Currently working as Operations & Admin Assistant at Ulumba logistics and Operations Manager at Auto Glow Cleaning Services, I combine hands-on business operations experience with active full-stack development. I'm deepening my skills in React, Flutter, and REST API architecture while shipping real-world projects.

Hear Glue Ear (HGE) — Production Rebuild

Serving as Maintainer on the production rebuild of Hear Glue Ear, a children's health and education app for families managing glue ear — working alongside senior engineer Paul Sellars (PSDigital) and clinical lead Dr Tamsin Holland Brown (Cambridge Hearing Trust). Onboarded onto a melos-managed Flutter/Dart monorepo built on Decap CMS and Cloudflare Workers/R2, diagnosing a Melos v7+ tooling issue and building a CI-based Android build workaround. Work is governed by explicit child-safety, privacy, and medical-device regulatory constraints.

Hear Glue Ear (HGE) — Standalone Prototype

Independently built a standalone prototype of Hear Glue Ear — a children's health app originally developed by the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (RCPCH), winner of the 2019 UK App Awards Children's App of the Year and UKCA/CE-marked with an ORCHA score of 82% — after RCPCH stepped back from the project. Built out core app sections end-to-end, engineered a custom ambient noise gauge from live microphone sampling, and set up Cloudflare R2 to stream an 11-song content category. The prototype validated reviving the app and was approved by the original clinical stakeholder, leading directly into the production rebuild above.

Ulumba Fleet Management Platform

While working in an operations and admin role at Ulumba Logistics, I built a personal compliance tracker to simplify my own day-to-day work — the team liked it enough to ask me to integrate it into their wider fleet management platform. That grew into ongoing contribution to a full-stack, TypeScript-based platform (Next.js/React 19, Supabase PostgreSQL) now in live production use. I built the compliance management module, its underlying database design in Prisma ORM and Supabase PostgreSQL, and the integration connecting it to the wider system.
