What I Do

I help businesses turn ideas, manual workflows, and technical requirements into working digital products. This includes developing responsive websites, e-commerce platforms, custom dashboards, backend systems, API integrations, AI-powered tools, chatbot systems, and automation workflows. My focus is not only on building something that looks good, but on creating systems that are useful, scalable, and aligned with business goals.

My Approach

I believe good digital products should be clear, reliable, and built around real user needs. Before development starts, I focus on understanding the actual problem, the users, the business process, and the expected outcome. From there, I work on solutions with clean UI structure, strong backend logic, mobile responsiveness, performance, SEO readiness, and long-term maintainability. My goal is to build products that perform well after launch, not just during a demo.

Technical Background

My experience covers both full-stack software development and AI/ML engineering. On the software side: React.js, Laravel, WordPress, Shopify, JavaScript, Python, SQL, REST APIs, Git, and AWS. On the AI side: machine learning, NLP, computer vision, OpenAI API, LangChain, RAG systems, vector databases, data pipelines, and model evaluation. This allows me to build intelligent tools, automation systems, AI-assisted platforms, and backend-connected digital products.

Digital WitnessFinal Year Project

Digital Witness

AI Security Assistant for Retail Environments

AI for retail surveillance security.

The project combines computer vision, deep learning, and temporal behaviour analysis to support retail teams with video-based risk assessment, forensic evidence extraction, POS audit support, and advisory alert generation. Built with YOLO for object detection and tracking, MobileNetV2 for feature extraction, and BiLSTM with Attention for analysing behaviour across video sequences. Digital Witness is designed as a responsible AI support tool - it does not determine guilt or make final decisions. All alerts are intended to support human review before any action is taken.

AI-Powered Misinformation Mitigation Tool

AI-powered misinformation detection.

The platform uses machine learning and NLP techniques to evaluate news content by analysing headline-body inconsistency, report incongruency, cross-article contradictions, and source-level differences. It also provides article summaries and allows users to contribute contextual notes for collaborative credibility assessment. The goal is not to censor information, but to help users make better decisions before trusting or sharing news content online.
