Bio

My journey began at 12 years old in 2010, coding hacks for computer games—a hobby that sparked my passion for programming. As I grew, I discovered web design and development, instantly falling in love with creating digital experiences. While studying Computer Science at C State (not yet completed), I've been building my skills and portfolio. Now, I'm focused on growing my professional company, combining technical expertise with creative vision to deliver exceptional digital solutions.

With over a decade of coding experience, I've evolved from a curious kid experimenting with game modifications to a professional developer creating websites and applications that solve real business problems. I bring a unique perspective that combines technical knowledge with creative problem-solving, allowing me to create digital experiences that are not only visually appealing but also functionally robust. Throughout my journey, I've remained committed to continuous learning and growth, staying current with emerging technologies and design trends. As I build my professional company, I'm excited to collaborate with clients who share my passion for innovation and excellence in the digital space.
