Events & ticketing
I run the Event Parlour community — posting upcoming events, ticketing drops, and product updates for organizers and attendees.

Hey — I'm Olive. I ship web products that feel fast and convert.
Software engineer focused on Next.js, React, and TypeScript. I partner with founders and teams who need someone to own the frontend — from MVP to production — without the agency overhead.
When we work together, you get direct communication, opinionated UX, and code you can actually maintain. No black boxes.

The human behind the commits
I hire for skill and vibe. Here's the vibe.
Side projects
Event Parlour, Navejo, and late-night UI experiments — the stuff I build because I want to, not because a brief said so.

Based in Kenya, collaborating with founders and teams across Africa, the US, and Europe. Time zones are a feature, not a bug.

I'm taking 1–2 new projects per month. Tell me what you're building — I'll reply with honest thoughts, not a sales script.
