About Me
I'm Alex Muturi, a Developer Trainer / Advocate at Unstacked Labs specializing in Angular, TypeScript, Ionic development, AI Tooling and Developing solutions to power businesses. Based in Nairobi, Kenya, I also help developers grow through practical education, mentoring, and community building.
My Journey
I began my journey as a software engineer, building real-world applications using tools like Angular, PHP, MySQL, Laravel, and WordPress. Over 7+ years, I've worked with Angular, Ionic, TypeScript, and RxJS, solving complex frontend and backend challenges.
Over time, I discovered something even more fulfilling: helping other developers grow. That passion evolved into my current role as a Developer Trainer/Advocate and Solutions Developer at Unstacked Labs, where I focus on teaching through code, sharing practical knowledge, and creating spaces where developers feel supported and empowered.
Current Focus
I dedicate my time to helping developers be successful with Angular, Ionic, and TypeScript. I strive to make technical concepts approachable and actionable—whether through documentation, conference talks, tutorials, mentoring sessions or building developer tools.
I'm continuosly learning too and and sharing lessons learnt by writing technical articles at Angular Recipes.
