About Me

Software engineer working across the full stack, from database schema to deployed infrastructure. I design and build multi-service platforms end to end, from client engagements to production Azure deployments. Based in Durban, South Africa.

A visual, diagram-first approach to systems design sits at the core of how I work — mapping out data models, workflows, and architecture before a line of code gets written. Currently building a multi-service platform for fibre network operations, alongside independent projects in mapping and booking systems. I treat clear stakeholder communication as part of the engineering, not separate from it.

Currently:

  • Building an inventory management module for a fibre network operations platform — approval workflows, stock tracking, and procurement, from schema design through UI/UX prototyping.

  • Leading key workstreams within the intern engineering team, coordinating architecture decisions and delivery.

  • Contributed to FTTH network planning and GIS work now implemented in production.

Gorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

Recent proof points:

  • Built an AI-powered solution at the IBM watsonx Hackathon.

  • Worked as a software tester at eKhonnector Systems, running end-to-end QA across sales, HR, finance, and claims platforms.

Roots: started out building a website for a non-profit, and leading as Tech-Team Captain and Robotics Team member in high school — where building things and leading people first came together for me.
