About Me
I'm an innovative Full-Stack Software Developer with expertise spanning web, mobile, and AI-powered applications. From backend architectures in Laravel to fluid frontends with Vue.js / Nuxt.js and cross-platform apps in Flutter — I ship end-to-end.
Beyond traditional development, I design and build geospatial systems — leveraging spatial databases, mapping libraries, and field data pipelines to help organizations understand and act on geographic information in real time.
I thrive in challenging environments — from low-connectivity field deployments across Uganda to AI-augmented workflows — always with a focus on clean architecture, open-source, and technology that solves real problems.
Geospatial & Field-First
Building systems that work where data is sparse — in the field, offline, and under pressure.

Notable Projects
Shipped products with real-world impact.
Kijani Forestry App
Cross-platform Flutter application with Airtable API integration for offline-first field data collection. Adopted by 450+ field staff across Uganda.
Airtable CRUD
Open-source Dart library published to pub.dev. Simplifies Airtable API integration for Flutter developers, reducing boilerplate and accelerating development.
Terrave
Real-time spatial dashboard for visualising field data from across Uganda. Integrates PostGIS, Leaflet, and Laravel for map-based analytics.
VireonHR
HRMS system with AI-powered recruitment and automated reports. Features employee management, payroll, attendance tracking, and performance reviews.
Publlsh
AI-powered social media management platform in development. Automates content scheduling, generates AI-assisted captions, and provides analytics.
Zoya Travels
Travel agency landing page built with Nuxt.js and Tailwind CSS. Fast, responsive, and SEO-optimized for showcasing travel packages and destinations.
Geospatial Systems
I design and build geospatial systems that transform raw geographic data into actionable intelligence. From mobile field data collection in remote Uganda to interactive web-based spatial dashboards — I bridge the physical world and the digital.
Spatial Databases
PostGIS, spatial indexing, geospatial queries, coordinate systems.
Interactive Mapping
Leaflet, Mapbox, OpenLayers — dynamic, web-based map visualisations.
Mobile Field Collection
GPS-integrated Flutter apps with offline sync for field teams.
Spatial Analytics
GeoJSON, KML, shapefiles — data pipelines for geographic decision-making.
