About

Hello, I'm Tapiwanahe B Mabvudzi

I'm a software developer from Zimbabwe and the engineer behind CORE NEXUS. I design and build business platforms, management systems and custom software on .NET, using Clean Architecture so systems stay maintainable as they grow.

My work ranges from a national tourism platform (Zim Voyage) and an AI-powered family-history system (MemoryOS) to school management systems, an e-commerce platform for a Harare retailer and a multi-school group system. Every project is built around the way the business really works, not around a template.
