About
is an innovative and purpose-driven Mobile Engineer based in Accra, Ghana, with four years of specialised experience building cross-platform mobile applications that serve millions of users across the African continent. She combines deep technical expertise in Flutter and React Native with an intimate understanding of the connectivity constraints, device diversity, and accessibility needs that define mobile usage in Sub-Saharan African markets. Over the course of her career, has built six consumer-facing applications that have collectively achieved over 500,000 downloads on the African market. These applications span the healthcare, fintech, and education sectors, and each has been designed from the ground up with African users in mind — accounting for intermittent 2G/3G connectivity, a wide range of device hardware capabilities from budget Android handsets to mid-range smartphones, and multi-language interfaces that support local languages alongside English and French. 's flagship achievement is the mobile health application she built and continues to lead at Healthbridge Africa. This Flutter application is used by 80,000 rural patients across Ghana and Togo to access primary healthcare services, connect with community health workers, and receive medication reminders and health education content. The app was built with an offline-first architecture using Hive for local data persistence, enabling patients to record symptoms and access health information even in areas without cellular coverage, with automatic sync when connectivity is restored. personally designed the sync conflict resolution strategy that ensures data integrity without user intervention. Her expertise in offline-first architecture extends beyond healthcare. She has developed proprietary Flutter packages for offline data synchronisation, background task scheduling, and local caching that she has shared with the Flutter Africa community. These packages have been adopted by several other African development teams building applications in similarly constrained environments. At ExpressPay Ghana, built a React Native fintech application that achieved 150,000 downloads in its first year, enabling Ghanaian consumers to make peer-to-peer transfers, pay utility bills, and purchase airtime. She integrated BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) for point-of-sale tap payments and implemented biometric authentication using device fingerprint and Face ID APIs. The application's payment flows were engineered for resilience, with optimistic UI updates and a transaction queue that guarantees delivery even when network requests fail mid-transaction. holds a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) in Kumasi, where she graduated with First Class Honours. She was recognised as the top graduating student in Computer Science in her cohort and received the Vice-Chancellor's Award for Academic Excellence. She is a strong advocate for WCAG accessibility standards adapted for African-language interfaces and low-literacy users. She has contributed accessibility improvements to the Flutter framework itself, and she writes about mobile accessibility on her technical blog, which reaches over 3,000 readers monthly. was nominated as a 2023 Google Developer Expert (GDE) for Flutter, recognising her contributions to the Flutter Africa open-source community. She is a regular speaker at Flutter meetups across West Africa and has presented at the Africa Flutter Conference and GDG DevFest Lagos. Her technical stack includes Flutter, React Native, TypeScript, Dart, Firebase, Supabase, GraphQL, REST APIs, Riverpod and BLoC for state management, and automated UI testing with integration_test and Detox. She has configured CI/CD pipelines using Fastlane and GitHub Actions for both Play Store and App Store deployments. is actively seeking senior mobile engineering or tech lead roles in healthtech, fintech, or edtech. She is open to fully remote positions and is particularly excited about projects that push the boundaries of what's possible on constrained devices for underserved communities. She is fluent in English, Twi, and French.
