AIRBOOK
AirBook 7 is a multi-level admin based, ledger & employee transaction management application — a React Native app for my client's field staff and a web platform for managers — that replaced Excel-based bookkeeping with real-time, hierarchy-controlled financial operations.

Excel.
A company's entire books ran on spreadsheets and trust.
Every transaction and transfer was typed into Excel by hand, then waited on a manager to notice and approve it. One mistyped figure could throw off a ledger for weeks, and no one had a live view of who owed what — or what was still pending.
What landed
on my desk.
A two-person build that I led. I owned it end to end — system design, the backend, the React Native staff app, UX, and the client relationship — and worked alongside one front-end engineer who built the manager platform to the specs and designs I set.
System design
Architecture, the ledger data model, and the hierarchy-based permission system.
Backend & APIs
Node/Express services, MySQL schema, approval workflows, and inter-employee transfers.
Mobile development
The entire React Native staff app — auth, transaction entry, to release.
UX & admin tooling
Information architecture, daybook flows, and the dashboards managers run on.
Team lead
Planned the work, reviewed every PR, and set specs for the front-end build.
Client partnership
Discovery, scoping, demos, and launch — a direct line to the client.
3 surfaces.
one platform.
One platform across three access tiers — a mobile app for field staff, a manager dashboard with approvals and daybooks, and a super-admin panel over every ledger. Below, a guided scroll through each.
Mobile app for staffs
React Native app for field staff to record ledger and employee transactions on the go, with a 24-hour history for quick self-review.
6 screens
Platform features for admins
Web dashboard giving managers full visibility into their team's ledgers, employee transactions, and a daybook for daily financial review and approvals.
8 screens
Platform features for super admins
Full-control panel for super admins to oversee all ledgers, manage the entire staff hierarchy, configure settings, and perform privileged operations.

Calls I had to make.
Every module had a bottleneck behind it. Tap any decision to see the problem, the call I made, and what it changed.
Employee transactions, ledger entries, and inter-employee transfers lived in spreadsheets — causing delays, calculation errors, and poor financial oversight across the organization.
Built a React Native app for staff and a web admin panel for managers, enabling real-time transaction recording, automated calculations, and centralized financial management.
Eliminated manual calculation errors, cut transaction processing time by 80%, and brought real-time synchronization across every device.
Now it runs.
The books went real-time in eight months. Here's what changed, in numbers the finance team actually feel.
Real-time recording and automated calculations replaced slow, error-prone Excel entry.
Automated approval workflows and bulk actions cleared the manager bottleneck.
Inter-employee transfers run on authorization checks, limits, and complete logs.
Financial record-keeping moved off spreadsheets into one synchronized platform.
Staff, admin, and super admin — each sees and approves only what their hierarchy allows.
Automated categorization and balance tracking across every ledger account.
From spreadsheets and waiting on approvals —
to a platform where every transaction is live and accounted for.
Tools that shipped it.
Each platform layer has its own stack — chosen for the constraints of the surface, not convention.
Mobile App
The staff app for recording transactions on the go.
Frontend
The web platform managers run the books on.
Backend
One API serving both surfaces with hierarchy-aware access.
Data & Infra
Where every ledger and transaction lives.
