about me
I'm a software developer from Davao City, currently studying Computer Science at the University of Mindanao. I love building websites and web apps, and I'm always excited to learn new things in tech. I am currently focusing on web development (mainly backend side and a little bit frontend) - creating websites that look good and work well. My studies and personal projects have taught me how to build both the parts users see and the behind-the-scenes code that makes everything work.
When I'm not coding, I'm exploring different sides of creativity. I'm a big music lover who enjoys listening to all kinds of genres - from jazz to rock to electronic music. I also love street photography, capturing everyday moments and interesting scenes around the city. Movies are another passion of mine, and I find inspiration in great storytelling and visual design.
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain
