I’ve been working as a developer since 2021. During that time, I’ve built and maintained a warehouse management system, a golf club registration and management platform, a booking system, and various service integrations.
The most involved project was a Moodle-based e-learning platform where all customizations had been made directly in the core which made version updates impossible. I inherited that codebase, dug deep into Moodle internals, gradually migrated everything into proper plugins, and kept the platform running throughout. I came out knowing Moodle inside out.
My most recent project is Tesuji—a real-time Go board game built with Laravel and Svelte. The hardest part was holding the entire game logic in my head at once and thinking it all the way through before writing a single line.
I learn quickly and genuinely enjoy picking up new technologies — not chasing every trend, but diving deep when something is worth it.
I think my strengths are patience, attention to detail, and the drive to fully understand what I’m working on - both the technical side and what the client actually needs.
Core stack: PHP 8, Laravel, PostgreSQL, Redis, WebSockets, JavaScript, React, Vue.js, Docker.
