Independent technology builder, developer and digital creator
a.k.a. Squashberry
Turning ideas into real digital experiences. Based in The Gambia, I build websites, apps and platforms where people and technology meet.
01 — About
I'm Israel Akinola Olamide — Nigerian, based in The Gambia, and known online as Squashberry.
I'm drawn to technology, software development, digital products and creative innovation. What I enjoy most is the moment an idea stops being an idea and becomes something people can open, tap and use.
My projects sit where people and technology meet: platforms for community, for media, for creators and for learning. Every project on this page is live.
