Problem Solving
I approach technical challenges logically and stay focused on the practical solution rather than the most interesting one. Most problems are resolved by narrowing down carefully, not by guessing quickly.
About
More than justbuilding websites.
I combine technology, design, problem solving and an understanding of what a website is actually for. The technical part is necessary; on its own it is rarely sufficient.

Background
I build websites for organisations that need them to actually do something: bring in enquiries, explain a service, hold together under real traffic, and stay maintainable once I have handed them over.
I hold a Diploma in Computer and Software Engineering from Makerere Institute of Technology East Africa, and I have practical experience across web development, WordPress, IT support, website maintenance, digital systems, SEO, digital marketing and client consultation.
Most of that experience was built over three years at Yunga Technologies Uganda Ltd, where a single week could involve building a site, restoring a broken one, explaining a technical constraint to a client in plain language, and fixing a machine that would not connect. That range is where I learned that reliability matters more to clients than cleverness.
What I actually do
In practice my work spans four areas that overlap more than they separate:
- Technology. WordPress and front-end development, plus the infrastructure underneath: hosting, domains, DNS, SSL, backups and migrations.
- Design. Structure before styling. Wireframes, responsive layouts and interface systems that hold together as a site grows.
- Problem solving. Narrowing down properly rather than guessing quickly, and documenting the fix so the same issue does not return.
- Business understanding. Earlier roles in sales and marketing mean I think about what a page is for, not only how it is built.
How I talk about my experience
I describe my level with a technology honestly. Some things I use daily and know well; others I have working knowledge of and am still developing. You will not find proficiency percentages on this site, because I would have to invent them, and you would find out soon enough.
The same applies to results. Where a project has measured outcomes, they are published. Where it does not yet, the case study says so rather than filling the gap with a number.

03What I Bring
Beyond thetechnical skills.
The parts of the job that decide whether a project goes well, and that are harder to list on a CV than a technology stack.
Adaptability
Comfortable learning new tools and adjusting to changing project requirements. The technology I use is chosen to fit the project, which means regularly working outside what is already familiar.
Client Communication
Able to translate technical requirements into terms a client can make decisions with, explaining the trade-off and not just the recommendation.
Attention to Detail
Focused on usability, consistency, responsiveness and technical quality. The difference between a site that feels professional and one that does not is usually a hundred small things.
Ownership
Comfortable taking responsibility for a project from development through deployment and ongoing support, including the parts that are nobody's favourite.
Continuous Learning
Actively developing my technical and digital skills. Where my experience with a technology is still growing, I say so rather than overstate it.
06Process
How I approachdigital projects.
Seven stages, applied consistently. The order matters, because most project problems trace back to a stage that was skipped rather than a stage that was done badly.
- 01
Discover
Understand the organisation, the audience and the business objective before anything is designed.
- Who the site is actually for, and what they arrive wanting to do.
- What the organisation needs the site to achieve commercially.
- What already exists: content, brand, infrastructure, constraints.
- 02
Plan
Define the information architecture, technical requirements and project direction.
- Sitemap and page-by-page structure agreed before build.
- Technology decisions made against the actual requirement, not habit.
- Scope, sequence and timeline written down.
- 03
Design
Create intuitive UI/UX and responsive layouts, structure first and styling second.
- Wireframes to settle hierarchy before visual decisions.
- A component system so the site stays consistent as it grows.
- Mobile layouts designed deliberately, not derived from desktop.
- 04
Build
Develop the site with the appropriate technology, in a way the next person can maintain.
- Semantic, accessible markup as the default.
- Reusable patterns rather than repeated one-off pages.
- Content structures your team can edit without breaking layouts.
- 05
Optimize
Improve performance, SEO, accessibility and security before launch, not after.
- Image weight, formats and loading strategy.
- Titles, descriptions, structured data and internal linking.
- Keyboard operability, contrast and focus states.
- 06
Launch
Deploy, test and verify, including the parts that usually get skipped.
- DNS, SSL and redirects checked before switching over.
- Every form submitted and confirmed to arrive.
- Analytics and Search Console verified as reporting correctly.
- 07
Support
Maintenance, improvements and technical support once it is live.
- Updates and backups on a schedule, verified after each run.
- A predictable point of contact when something breaks.
- Improvements informed by what the data actually shows.
