About Me

Get to know me better

I’m a full-stack developer with over 2 years of hands on experience in building scalable, intuitive, and high-performance applications. My journey began with a deep curiosity for how technology works, which led me to pursue a degree in Computer Science at the University of Caloocan City. Over the years, I’ve developed a strong foundation in both backend and frontend development, and I enjoy creating solutions that solve real problems and provide meaningful user experiences.

I specialize in modern web technologies such as React, Vue, Next.js, Node.js, and Laravel, and I’ve built projects ranging from e-commerce platforms to AI-powered learning systems. My work includes developing RESTful APIs, implementing CI/CD pipelines, optimizing system performance, integrating AI tools like GPT and Gemini models, and deploying applications on cloud platforms such as AWS, Railway, and Vercel.

I’ve contributed to projects in a start-up, giving me a well-rounded understanding of development workflows, scalability requirements, and best practices like test-driven development and continuous integration. I’m also experienced with hardware-software integration through IoT projects, including automated systems using Arduino and real-time monitoring with cloud-connected backends.
