I've built software for 20 years. AI has now supercharged the process.
Founder of RVO Media and WeJapa. I have shipped products across continents and traveled to 40 countries doing it. These days I help founders turn an idea into a real product, fast.

Builder first.
I started RVO Media in 2012 and have been building software for clients and for myself ever since. Somewhere along the way I stopped just building for other people and started building my own companies.
What began as a web agency grew into something bigger. I went from writing code to leading teams, from shipping client work to running products of my own. Each one taught me something the last could not.
I have learned the hard parts the slow way. What it costs to run a dev team. What breaks at scale. What it actually takes to get a product from an idea in your head to something real people pay for.
I have done it from everywhere too. Building between cities and countries forces a kind of clarity. You stop assuming your way is the only way, and you start building for people who are nothing like you.
That is the experience I bring to everything now. Twenty years of it, and I am still more curious about what I am building next than anything I have already shipped.

The companies.
I build for the world because I have seen it.
I have traveled to around 40 countries. That is not a vanity number. It is why I build the way I do.
When you build WeJapa for African travelers, or software for clients across continents, you cannot think in one market. You learn fast that users in Lagos, London, and Dubai expect different things. Seeing the world changed how I build for it.

Shanghai, Beijing, Qingdao, Shenzhen. I went to look at electric vehicles and clean energy up close, and came back certain about where the world is heading.

AI Changed Who Gets to Build
For twenty years, shipping real software meant a real team and a real monthly burn. That math just broke, and it broke in favor of the people who were locked out.

Building a Travel Platform for Africans Who Travel
Most travel software is built on assumptions that quietly exclude half the planet. Building WeJapa taught me how much those assumptions cost.
