Hi
Hello
my name is

Tolu Akindele.

I build web applications.

I'm a Vancouver-based full-stack engineer.

about me

I fell in love with computers back in Nigeria, where my mom ran an internet café. Picture this - a tiny me, watching in awe as people from the neighborhood would come in to use these amazing machines. Whenever I got the chance, I'd hop on a computer myself, clicking around and discovering new things. All I could think about was having my own computer someday.

When I was eleven, my family moved to Canada. But that spark I got from those early days at the café? It never went away. Instead, it grew into this incredible passion for creating things with code. As a musician, I know firsthand how you can take individual notes and transform them into something beautiful and moving. That's exactly how I feel about programming - it's this amazing ability to take ideas and bring them to life through software. Whether I'm composing music or writing code, there's nothing quite like turning imagination into reality.

I ended up getting my BSc Computing Science from the University of Alberta, focusing on Software Practice and picking up some business knowledge along the way.

Recently I have been working with the following:

  • Typescript
  • React
  • Ruby on Rails
  • NextJS
  • Vite
  • CursorIDE
