Full-Stack Developer & Technical Systems Analyst
I re-engineer messy workflows into secure, scalable software.
I work where business requirements, system architecture, code and security meet. I translate stakeholder needs into technical specifications, identify bottlenecks and code-level risks, design clearer workflows, and build or support the systems that carry them.
- 100+ architecture, logic and security issues mapped
- 350+ automated tests passing
- 500+ SIM assets administered
Core technical stack
- Node.js
- React
- Python
- PHP / Laravel
- AWS
- Azure AI
- PostgreSQL
- MySQL
- SDLC
- UML
- Gap Analysis
- Cybersecurity Auditing
Personal principle
Dreams delayed are not dreams denied.
I started tertiary later than I hoped, but I kept moving, earned my IT qualification and built real systems because delayed timing never changed the goal.

Target Roles
I am ready for junior, associate and internship-to-permanent opportunities where development, systems thinking, stakeholder requirements and secure delivery all matter.
What I Bring
Systems & Business Analysis
Requirements elicitation, stakeholder alignment, system flow mapping, gap analysis, business rules, UML, SOP redesign and actionable technical specifications.
Full-Stack Delivery
Node.js, React.js, PHP, Laravel, JavaScript, Python, C++, REST APIs, PostgreSQL, MySQL, authentication logic and AWS deployment.

BI & Reporting
Power BI, DAX, SharePoint Online, Power Automate, Excel reporting, KPI dashboards and automated weekly and monthly reporting outputs.
Security-Minded Systems Work
My interest in cybersecurity comes from a practical belief: systems should not only work, they should be protected, auditable and safe for the people and data depending on them.
Design With Risk in Mind
I look at permissions, data exposure, workflow abuse cases, validation gaps and operational handoffs while analysing or building systems.
Document Security Clearly
My platform audit work turned security and logic risks into severity-ranked findings and remediation steps that teams could act on.
Protect Operational Environments
Banking support experience taught me how access, connectivity, assets, vendors and compliance processes affect real users and business continuity.
