About MeChapter 01
GOOD INTERFACESFEEL EFFORTLESS.BUILDING THEMIS THE HARD PART.
I’m a React developer with over two years of professional experience building fast, responsive and accessible web applications. I currently work as an Associate React Developer at 3CS Asia, where I turn designs into production-ready interfaces with React, Next.js and Tailwind CSS. My career started with a year-long software engineering internship at Syeta Labs. I care about clean, maintainable code and good user experience, and I’m always looking for interesting freelance projects.

It started with a one-year internship at Syeta Labs. The clock hasn’t stopped since: more components, more pages, more shipped work.
That counter is live. It’s the time since my first day writing code for a living, and it ticks a little further every time you look. Two-plus years of React, Next.js and Tailwind, and still learning something new every week.

A BEng (Hons) in Software Engineering from the University of Westminster gave me the foundations: data structures, software design, testing, and how real teams ship software.
The degree taught me how to think about problems. The internship and two years at 3CS Asia taught me how to ship. Both show up in every pull request I open.
SkillsChapter 06
EVERY PROJECTLANDS SOMEWHERE.
Each build adds to the stack. Some tools I reach for every day, some I picked up because a project needed them. Either way, it adds up to a developer who can take a design from Figma to a live URL.
