About me

About me

I'm Perre—software engineer, CTO, and the guy who genuinely gets excited explaining how payment systems work.

By day, I'm building fintech infrastructure at Figours (processing millions monthly) and leading tech at GidiNest, a maternal savings platform helping Nigerian families prepare for childbirth. By whenever-I-can, I'm mentoring developers at Bayelsa Tech Hub—50+ and counting, most now working in tech.

Seven years in, I still love this stuff. Elixir, React, Node, payment rails, the whole mess of making software that handles real money. I also write on Substack about growth, authenticity, and figuring life out as I go.

I'm curious, I ask too many questions, and I'm always up for a good conversation. Say hi.
