<I Code for Startups & Social Enterprises/>
I guide startups through the rocky road of building their first product. I have the full-stack development skills to transform ideas into slick web platforms and mobile apps. And I find creative ways of fitting it into a typical startup budget.
What Can I Make For You?
Web Apps
A data-driven web platform is the most versatile starting point for most startups.
Mobile Apps
Cross-platform (iOS and Android) apps for high user engagement.
Websites
Websites with carefully crafted design and messaging to sell your brand.
The Chicken or The Egg?
Building a startup can seem like a catch-22. To build product, you need funds. To raise funds, you need a product with traction. What’s an entrepreneur to do?
There is a middle way. A Product Manager can help you validate your idea, cull your MVP scope to fit your budget, develop a product roadmap, create a slick user experience, and manage the development process.
But hiring a Product Manager AND a Developer sounds more expensive than hiring just a Developer! Well, not quite…
The Whole Package
I have the skills to walk you through the entire process from idea to launch. No expensive agency fees. No headaches coordinating between a team of freelancers. Think of me as your software concierge.
Product Strategy
I’ll work with you to decide what to build in order to deliver the right product for your users, within your budget.
UX & UI Design
Good UX is no longer a luxury. Either your product is easy-to-use, or you lose. I design seamless experiences with “good enough” look-and-feel.
Full-Stack Development
I create data-driven platforms using a toolset carefully chosen to to deliver smooth user experiences in a super-quick fast timeframe.
Toolbox
I work with a set of modern software that allows delightful user experiences in a rapid and cost-effective timeframe.

Hi, I'm Simba.Startup guy first, coder second.
I cut my startup teeth in UX and Product Management, guiding startups on the journey from idea to MVP, and beyond. When the time came to launch HandsUp, my own social enterprise startup, I decided to build it myself. The startup failed, but I became obsessed with the creative art of coding up web and mobile apps.
That journey has led me around Asia, where my digital nomad lifestyle gives me the opportunity to work on socially conscious startups.
