//Software Developer

I build intelligent, well-engineered software — bringing the operational discipline of leading real teams to the craft of code.

01About

Operator turned engineer.

I'm a Computer Science student at Varsity College and a hands-on team leader who came into tech through systems and operations. Before writing software full-time, I ran a retail team — owning recruitment, budgets, inventory, and the kind of standards that don't survive sloppy execution.

I now channel that same discipline into building things: full-stack web applications, generative-AI experiments, and clean, considered interfaces. I care about software engineering, AI, cybersecurity, UI/UX, and the business thinking that ties them all together.

Assistant Manager

2022 — 2024
Akhal's Spice and More

Led a team and ran day-to-day operations — the project-management and systems foundation behind how I build software.

  • Built and led a team of 6 — recruitment, training, and daily supervision; faster stock turnaround and fewer complaints within months.
  • Ran social media and marketing end-to-end, growing foot traffic and repeat customers with no agency or budget.
  • Re-engineered the stock process supplier-orders → returns, cutting audit inventory errors each quarter.
  • Owned monthly budgets and financial records, flagging inefficiencies early to keep the store profitable.
