I’m a full-stack web developer currently based in Taipei 🇹🇼 I love to create and share what I learn, so I thought I’d do a bit of both here

My experience has mostly been with startups in Taiwan and in the Philippines. I also like to collaborate with friends for projects I find interesting.

In my free time I like to do CrossFit, hike mountains, read, or just chill with friends. I also like to do volunteer work for church.
