ABOUT ME

I'm a Software Engineer and SaaS founder based in Ghana, with over five years of experience building web applications and working remotely with distributed teams. I'm currently a Senior Frontend Engineer at Green Vision Solutions GmbH, a German company, where I lead frontend development for GreenHub, a carbon reporting platform used by over 300 companies across Germany and some parts of Europe.

Outside of my work, I build and maintain other projects, including sheetrocket.com, Formcarve, and Formgrid.dev that solve real developer pain points and improve workflows.

With 5+ years of experience, I work across the stack, specializing in React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB, delivering maintainable, scalable solutions. My work emphasizes performance optimization, clear data visualization, and improving developer experience, ensuring that tools and platforms provide real business value.

I led the development of Formgrid, an open-source and privacy-friendly alternative to Formspree. It’s designed to help developers and businesses handle website forms, such as contact or feedback forms, without building a backend. With Formgrid, users can connect their HTML forms to a unique endpoint and start receiving submissions instantly. The platform includes features like email notifications, built-in spam protection using honeypots and rate limiting, and an optional Proof-of-Work CAPTCHA that protects users without harvesting data. It’s also self-hostable with Docker for full data control or available as a hosted version for plug-and-play setup. Fully open-source under the MIT License, Formgrid ensures there’s no vendor lock-in or hidden data collection, making form handling simple, secure, and transparent.

I built Sheetrocket, a micro-SaaS platform that transforms any spreadsheet into a JSON API, to solve the common challenge of complex backend setup and API key management when working with Google Sheets. By allowing users to utilize spreadsheets as a CMS, power contact forms, and display live data on websites, it simplifies integration for both developers and non-developers. This led to faster MVP launches, reduced development overhead, and easier content management for small teams and solo builders.
