What I do

01 / Work

Most of my work lives on a screen in someone's pocket. I build mobile apps end to end — iOS, Android, Watch, tvOS — and handle the backend and web layers that sit behind them.

  • 01

    Cross-platform mobile apps

    One codebase, every pocket — React Native apps that feel native on both iOS and Android.

  • 02

    Native mobile development

    Fully native iOS and Android apps when performance and platform fidelity matter most.

  • 03

    Watch & tvOS development

    Native experiences for Apple Watch and Apple TV — the screens most developers never touch.

  • 04

    Backend development

    APIs, data models, and infrastructure that quietly keep everything above them running. Python is my jam.

Photography

03 / Field Notes

Code pays the bills; photography keeps the eye sharp — the same sense of light, framing, and timing I bring to the interfaces I build. A rolling selection from Accra and wherever the road goes.

About

04 / Person

Nine years in, my work spans the full arc of a product — wireframing the first screens, building the apps people actually hold, and running the backends behind them. Mostly React Native with native Swift and Kotlin underneath, across regulated, high-consequence domains: healthcare, banking, emergency response.

The camera came first, though — and the eye it trained for light, framing, and timing is the same one I bring to an interface.
