Who I Am

I'm a passionate web designer and developer currently completing my Digital Media & IT diploma at NAIT. My journey into web development began during a high school computer science class when I built my first interactive webpage. Seeing code transform into a functional website sparked an interest that has guided my path ever since.

Specializing in full-stack development, I have spent the past year strengthening my skills in HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, PHP, and MySQL through hands-on projects. What excites me most is transforming complex problems into clear, user-friendly solutions.

My goal is to establish myself as a trusted freelance web developer and IT consultant, helping small businesses and entrepreneurs build responsive websites and digital solutions that meet real needs.
