01 / My story

A developer’s mind.
A designer’s heart.

I build digital experiences that look considered, feel intuitive, and work beautifully.

It started with Blogger templates in high school. A little HTML, a little CSS, and a lot of “what happens if I change this?” That curiosity became a career in frontend development and a lasting love for design.

With 5+ years in the industry, I work across React and Next.js applications, UI/UX design, and visual identities. I enjoy making complex things easier to understand—and finding the unexpected detail that makes them memorable.

“Don’t make it difficult
for the user.”A professor’s advice. A lasting design principle.

A controller, a good RPG, and a world worth getting lost in. Elden Ring is very much my kind of escape.

Pens, paper, and unfinished sketches. An idea often feels clearer before it reaches a screen.

A fresh idea, a complex challenge, or a simple hello.
