Software Developer · AI Systems & Decentralized Applications

Software developer and student at the Federal University of Technology, Minna, building across the full stack with a focus on AI systems, decentralized applications, and developer tooling. Outside of client and production work, I build my own projects in my leisure time and stay active in the student tech community, speaking and helping organize events on campus.

Projects
Solana · Rust · TypeScript · WebRTC
  • Built a decentralized peer-to-peer communication protocol for autonomous AI agents, eliminating centralized relay servers from active agentic workflows.
  • Designed an on-chain identity and handshake layer on Solana using Rust and Anchor, with WebRTC data channels for direct encrypted agent communication.
  • Architected a concurrent session manager with fan-in queuing and an on-chain agentic firewall for decentralized allowlist enforcement.
Python · TypeScript · MCP · Open Source
  • Built a two-phase resource orchestration SDK that maps multimodal files (PDFs, videos, audio, images) via an initial LLM pass, enabling agents to later extract precise sections 100% locally without re-uploading.
  • Designed schema-consistent architecture across Python and TypeScript ecosystems with MCP server integration for agent-based tool-calling workflows.
  • Built to solve a context precision problem encountered while developing goStuddy.
React · Sui · Walrus · Seal · zkLogin
  • Built a decentralized secret access layer gating sensitive data behind cryptographic identity verification rather than centralized password storage.
  • Implemented zkLogin for on-chain identity proof, Seal for permissioned secret release, and Walrus for encrypted external storage.
  • Designed an ephemeral session architecture where secrets are never stored in plaintext and access is reconstructed dynamically per session.
Next.js · MongoDB · Gemini API
  • Built an autonomous study navigator where a Director Agent drives the session, issues UI commands, and adjusts the learning path based on observed behavior.
  • Designed a smart puppet architecture where the frontend responds to agent commands rather than direct user input.
  • Implemented a Parking Lot mechanism to capture off-topic questions without disrupting active session momentum.
Laravel · Vue.js · FastAPI
  • Built a platform that helps teachers create structured courses and lets students learn with intelligent, contextual AI assistance.
Next.js · MongoDB · Telegram Bot API
  • Built a unified messaging dashboard connecting Telegram conversations to a centralized inbox for pipeline visibility and follow-up management.
  • Launched MVP with Telegram as the initial channel, with architecture designed to support additional platforms.
