Career Summary

Full-stack software engineer with a Bachelor of Software Engineering from the University of Canberra. Originally from the Philippines, I moved to Australia four years ago and built a career in disability support while completing my degree — sharpening time management, adaptability, and people skills along the way. I build production web and mobile applications across the JavaScript and TypeScript ecosystem: Next.js, React Native, and Node.js. I have hands-on experience with CMS-driven platforms, cloud integrations, and developer tooling, and I'm proficient in Python, C++, C, and Java. I care about clean systems, precise design, and work that has real impact.
