About me

Five years designing and building for Kenyan businesses: storefronts, point-of-sale and products of my own, from a Chrome extension to a Flutter app. Most of what I design, I build too, so the details survive. Phone-first and accessible by default. Let’s build something that works.

Services

  1. Product & UX design

    Discovery, stakeholder interviews, journeys and wireframes that turn a messy process into a product people can use on the phone in their hand.

  2. UI & design systems

    Hi-fi interfaces and the tokens, components and light and dark themes behind them, handed over as a system developers can build from.

  3. Odoo e-⁠commerce & ERP

    Storefronts, point-of-sale, inventory and accounting on Odoo, with M-Pesa on the purchase path and eTIMS on the invoice.

  4. Apps: Flutter, React, PWA

    Mobile apps in Flutter, web apps in React, and offline-first PWAs and Chrome extensions built from one codebase.

  5. Launch & after

    Search Console, Google Merchant Center, structured data, and a post-launch audit that proves every form and order path actually works.

Hodi

Research killed the first product. The second is a rent book for Kenyan tenancies, and the vacancy pipeline that falls out of it.
