I don't build apps—I architect platforms that handle real users, real transactions, and real growth.

}Not This: "I'm a Flutter developer who builds mobile apps"
But This: I architect digital transformation solutions for nonprofits and real estate companies who need systems that won't break at scale.

Most developers focus on features. I focus on outcomes:
- 📊 60% admin time reduction (Cosecha nonprofit platform)
- 📦 35% stockout reduction + 2.5x faster restocking (K-App inventory system)
- 🔄 Real-time sync across web/mobile without data loss (multiple platforms)
- 🏗️ Multi-tenant architecture supporting unlimited organizations (Cosecha)
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Business Problem → System Design → Tech Stack → Scale │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
My Stack:
- Frontend: Flutter (native roots), FlutterFlow (strategic speed)
- Backend: Firebase (Firestore, Cloud Functions, Auth), Custom APIs
- Integrations: Stripe, payment gateways, third-party APIs, web scraping, data enrichment
- Architecture: Multi-tenant SaaS, role-based access control, real-time sync, security rules
- Languages: Dart (expert), JavaScript, Java, Python, Kotlin
Why This Matters:
I started with Android/Java, evolved through Kotlin → Flutter → FlutterFlow. I can debug complex issues that pure no-code developers can't touch, build custom packages when FlutterFlow hits limits, and speak credibly to technical CTOs.
- Computer Science (Maseno University) — Theory meets practice
- Android Engineer Origins — Native mobile foundations matter
- 2,032+ hours with one client — I build for long-term relationships, not quick exits
- $100K+ on Upwork — Top Rated Plus, 96% job success, 54 completed projects

"Most developers build something and disappear. I build platforms that require ongoing support, feature expansion, and maintenance—which is why my best clients keep me on retainer."
💡 Note for Technical Recruiters: My repos here reflect pure code foundations (Android/Java/Kotlin). Current work involves FlutterFlow + Firebase platforms under NDA. GitHub stats show commitment, not current stack. For live production work, see portfolio link above.
