About

I design, build, and scale mobile and cloud-backed applications. Over a decade, I've taken products from idea to production across rideshare, healthcare, fitness, and accessibility domains — for clients in the US, UK, and Bangladesh.

I'm strongest where engineering meets product: turning vague business requirements into shipped systems, modernising legacy codebases, and getting small teams to deliver fast without cutting corners on architecture.

Outside work, I volunteer as a Tech Tutor with LifeLines in Brighton and Hove, helping adults build digital skills.

Let's talk.
