Code & chords, in one calling.

I'm a web developer and musician with a BSc in Business Computing from Makerere University. My work spans full-stack web development, system design, and digital solutions for churches, NGOs, and businesses.

Previously at Tenda Africa Limited and Webstar Uganda, where I built platforms with PHP Laravel, React, and WordPress. Off-screen, I serve as pianist, organist, and choir trainer across Church of Uganda parishes.

How I work

A clear path from idea to launch.

  1. 01

    Discover

    A short call to understand goals, audience, constraints, and budget. No commitment.

    Design

    Sitemap, wireframes, and a visual direction you sign off on before any code is written.

  3. 03

    Build

    Weekly check-ins, staging previews, and iterative feedback loops — no surprises at the end.

  4. 04

    Launch & support

    QA, training, and post-launch support so the system keeps performing long after go-live.
