§ 02 — About

Who is
behind the terminal?

Lagos-based · Bowen Univ. Alumnus · Computer Science, 2nd Class Upper

I'm a developer with a track record of initiative and dependability — the kind who actually enjoys a messy Jira board and an edge case at 11pm.

My sweet spot is the backend: designing APIs, integrating external services, keeping databases honest. But I ship the frontend when the job calls for it — Next.js, Vue, plain HTML, whatever the situation demands.

I've worked with startups and corporations alike — from Building the Future, where I cut my teeth, to KPMG where I learned enterprise discipline, to Apel Asset where I now own real production systems.

§ 06 — Beyond the Terminal

I Read,
I write

Medium · Books · Tech essays · Long-reads

Outside of writing code I'm consuming it — documentation, essays, postmortems, and the occasional deep-dive into things I have no business caring about. Reading is how I think.

Lately it's been software architecture war stories, African fintech ecosystems, and engineering culture essays. If it's well-written and teaches me something, I'm in at midnight.
