👨‍💻 About Me

I'm a software developer and AI engineer based in Rustenburg, South Africa. I build full-stack web apps and AI-powered systems - from voice assistants and chatbots to network infrastructure and Web3 tools. Most of what I ship is self-taught and production-facing, not just side projects. I've completed contracts at two tech firms and I'm currently freelancing while looking for a remote full-time role where I can keep building things that actually work.

Outside of code I write poetry and I'm learning C from the ground up.

🟢 Open to full-time remote opportunities.
