About

I have always had an enterpreneural midset from an early age. I love building and doing hard things. So after evaluating the ROI(Return over Investment) of an idea I challenge myself on building it.Grit is the primary cause for me to upscale from not only to designing digital products but also building them. Now I believe that everything is possible through Code.

I've worked on a variety of projects, from simple websites to complex web applications. Here are a few of my favorites.

Chat Collect

With the release of the OpenAI GPT Store, I decided to build a SaaS which allows users to collect email addresses from their GPT users. This is a great way to build an audience and monetize your GPT API usage.

Working Process

  • Discovery Call
    I usually hop on a discovery call with my prospect client. Together with the client, we debunk his idea and the vision. I get to the root core of my clients painpoints and from this am able to have clear estimate of my scope of work. From here I confirm my involvement in the project.
  • Onboarding
    Once my techstack align with the clients needs,I confirm my availabilty for the project. Legal paperwork is signed off at this step. These include a Non-Disclosure Agreement(NDA)- if any and also we both sign a contract to bind us. The client is liable to pay off 50% of the project worth as a committment fee and as a deposit.
  • Design/First Draft
    If a project is to start from scratch i present my first design wireframes both LoFi and HiFi. The designs come in three different variations to give the client an idea of different versions of the same project.If the project was already existing I present my first draft of my code for review and revision. Here the client makes iterations based off the three variations. Suggestions are welcome at this point.
  • Coding
    With the summarised iterations of the project i build the product since there is a clear picture of the expected outcome. Once this is done we review the product while still in production so as to ensure am on the same page with my client.
  • Delivery and Deployment
    Once I am done with the build stage and the client confirms that the product align with the intended scope of work we deploy the product with a service of their liking. Full settlement of the remaining 50% is expected upon delivery of the intellectual property.
