Web design / Development / UI/UX

hi, that's me

based in Nairobi,

say hello

Meet Brian

Design, code and the care after launch. One person.

I choose the platform around the client's budget and the people who will update it after launch.

I'm a Nairobi-based software engineer who designs and builds websites, digital products and the systems behind them.

I work across no-code builders (Framer, Webflow, Wix), CMS platforms (WordPress, Shopify, Strapi) and fully custom builds in Angular, Node.js and .NET.

I've been building websites since 2018, and designing them too: user flows, wireframes, clickable prototypes and design systems in Figma.

For brands I design identities, posters and social media sets in Photoshop, Illustrator and Canva.

since 2018, and still enjoying it

Right tool, every time. Whatever fits your team best wins.

Mobile app / Climate tech

Sisi na Miti app

Tree planting turned into a game the whole community plays, aiming for 4 billion trees.

My role: Part of the design and development team. Members get seedlings, log trees they plant or protect, join groups and earn points and levels for every tree, while landholders track what is planted on their land and who funded it.

trees vs points. It gets competitive.

My approach

Listen. Design. Build. Stay.

no surprises: you sign off each step

  1. 01

    Listen first

    Sit with leadership and the people who run the site. Audit the current site, map the audiences and agree the goals.

  2. 02

    Design it

    Sitemap and wireframes, then design options in Figma. A clickable prototype before any code.

  3. 03

    Build it right

    Develop on the chosen platform, set up the CMS, move content across, then test on real phones and browsers.

  4. 04

    Launch and stay

    Go live, train the staff, hand over guides and credentials, then stay on for updates and support.

On launch day

Approved designs / responsive site / CMS with staff roles / content moved across / SEO and analytics / SSL and backups / training, guides and full handover

Every month after

Updates and security monitoring / speed tuning / content and event updates / monthly analytics summary / fixes and new features

For your organisation

From a visitor's first search to their first enquiry

  • Found on Google

    Local SEO, fast pages and a free Google Business Profile, so people searching nearby find you.

  • A clear path to enquire

    Services, prices, bookings and an Enquire button on every page, leading straight to your team.

  • Every enquiry counted

    Free Google Analytics shows which pages bring enquiries, so you know what brings in the work.

  • Your audience in the loop

    News, events, updates and downloads in one place, easy to read on a phone.

  • Staff-friendly CMS

    Your staff update content without a developer, with training and written guides at handover.

  • Safe by design

    Consent and terms and conditions on every form, so your visitors' data is handled under Kenya's Data Protection Act, 2019.

Scope is the website. Portals, apps and custom systems can be scoped and quoted separately.

your visitors first, always. They read every word.

Let's talk

I'd love to build something with you.

Thank you for your time. I'm looking forward to working together, from the first sketch to launch day and beyond.
