Experience
Macbeths
The theme was developed using object-oriented programming (OOP) principles for clean, modular, and maintainable code. I implemented SCSS to make styling elements like colors, fonts, and background images dynamic and easily adjustable. The front end was designed to be highly responsive, scalable, and user-centric, delivering a seamless experience across devices.
The back end was carefully structured to give the client complete control over theme elements through an intuitive interface, reducing dependency on developers for future updates or content changes.
Natta
The back end was designed for flexibility, enabling clients to customize each site individually, including activating or deactivating custom post types and managing their site-specific theme settings. I implemented SCSS to dynamically control styles such as color, font, and layout, ensuring each site could reflect its brand identity without modifying core code.
To enhance usability, I built an AJAX-based search feature that allows users to filter posts using multiple parameters. The theme is fully responsive and cross-browser compatible, ensuring a seamless user experience on all devices.
This project highlights efficiency and scalability, offering complete design and content control within a powerful multisite environment.
Millennium | Online Food Delivery App
I integrated PayPal and Razorpay, Google Cloud API for real-time maps and locations, and Firestore to provide real-time data to assign nearby drivers and for delivery people to fetch. The notification module allows users, vendors, and delivery people to receive real-time notifications for any order or event. All the reports and payouts for vendors and delivery people can be fetched from the back end.
WordPress SEO Scan Plugin
SaaS | User Profile
Going Away Gifts
The project involved converting a bespoke Figma design into a fully functional WooCommerce website with a custom-built theme, ensuring responsive design, performance optimization, and scalability.
Additionally, I implemented a custom vendor registration workflow, requiring users to submit identity verification documents. The system includes an admin approval process to review and validate submissions before activating vendor accounts, adding an extra layer of trust and security to the platform.
Implemented a custom vendor registration flow with identity verification and admin approval, ensuring secure onboarding and adding trust to the multi-vendor platform.
Integrated multiple payment gateways and a vendor payout system, enabling secure transactions and an easy way for vendors to claim their earnings.
Kuizzo

Blackwise
The platform allows users to search for business apps using multiple filters, making discovery intuitive and personalized. Users can save apps to their dashboard, mark favorites, and view engagement metrics like total views for each listing. Additionally, users can suggest apps they believe should be included. These suggestions go through an admin approval process to ensure quality control.
Overall, Blackwise provides a clean and community-driven way to support and discover Black-owned businesses backed by a modern tech stack for scalability and future growth.
Simple Invoice
The app supports recurring invoices, multi-currency transactions, and downloadable PDFs and integrates with popular payment gateways to allow direct payments. Built with dynamic routing and server-side rendering in Next.js, the UI is smooth, fast-loading, and highly scalable.
