Hi! I'm James Falola, and this is my website. (sick font right?)

Software Engineering Lead, car enthusiast, frequent gym goer, and supports an unfortunate football club - Manchester United. Welcome to my digital space where I share my thoughts, work, and experiences as I go through life.

About Me

I'm a software engineer based in Lagos, Nigeria, currently leading B2B API infrastructure development at Yellow Card App. With a background in Computer Science and Engineering from OAU, I'm passionate about building scalable solutions and mentoring others in the tech community.

Previously, I served as a mentor at DSC OAU from September 2018 to January 2021, where I provided mentorship for beginners in PHP and JavaScript, contributing to the growth of aspiring developers.
