Building a local-first study workspace for source integration, durable notes, and spaced repetition.

Product Engineer · Computer Engineering Student
I was born and raised in Nairobi, KE. I now live in Istanbul, TR. I build software end to end, from the interface people use to the systems that make it work.
I'm currently building Raqq, a local-first study workspace for serious students of knowledge. I led the design and development of storefronts and admin dashboards for Velvet Emporium and Veda Fashion. I'm also building Overhawl, an open-source initiative bringing the simplicity of pen and paper to the software we use.
Selected work
Built a storefront and admin system for an established boutique moving beyond Instagram and WhatsApp sales.
Built the brand identity, storefront, and admin workflows for a new Nairobi boutique.
A calm, local-first Markdown notes app that keeps accumulated knowledge available without continuously exposing its scale.
Built a focused task app that keeps daily work aligned with weekly, monthly, yearly, and lifelong goals.
