About

I’m a software engineer focused on building full-stack web applications and developer tools, with a strong preference for TypeScript, React, Node.js, and SQL-backed systems. I enjoy crafting responsive user experiences, designing clean REST APIs, and wiring up real-time workflows with WebSockets and Socket.IO.

I also like turning messy debugging and internal workflows into polished products—whether that means creating tools like a real-time webhook debugger with replay and live updates, or building authenticated scheduling and marketplace systems with reliable data access controls. Alongside development, I care about secure server-side request handling, quality improvements, and shipping Dockerized deployments that are easier to run and maintain.

Altair is my personal portfolio website, designed and developed as an interactive showcase for my work across web design, frontend development, and software engineering.

Rather than using a conventional portfolio grid, I built the experience around a more editorial, exhibition-style layout where each project has its own visual identity while still feeling part of one cohesive system.
The site combines large typography, restrained motion, immersive project presentations, responsive layouts, and custom interactions to make browsing the portfolio feel more like exploring a digital showcase than reading a résumé.

I designed and developed the entire experience, including the visual direction, component architecture, responsive behavior, transitions, project presentation system, and overall interaction design.

BisitaPH - Tourism Survey & Visitor Insights Platform

BisitaPH is a tourism-focused survey platform designed to collect visitor feedback and turn tourism experiences into useful insights. I designed and developed the interface around a clear, accessible survey experience while giving the platform a distinct Philippine tourism identity. The homepage introduces the purpose of the platform, presents key tourism statistics, and organizes surveys into categories so visitors can quickly find and participate in relevant questionnaires. The visual direction combines destination photography, dark atmospheric backgrounds, green accents, and structured content sections to make what could have been a conventional survey system feel more engaging and purpose-driven. My work focused on the website’s visual design, responsive frontend implementation, information hierarchy, navigation, and overall user experience. webdesigner #webdeveloper #frontenddeveloper #uidesign #uxdesign #tourism #survey #responsivewebdesign #philippines

Aletheia - AI Business Investigation System

Aletheia is an AI-powered business investigation system that turns business questions into structured, evidence-backed investigations. Rather than functioning as a conventional chatbot, the system plans an investigation, calls relevant data tools, gathers evidence, validates findings, and produces a final conclusion with confidence and supporting evidence. I developed the system across both the product interface and investigation architecture, including planner/tool orchestration, runtime validation, evidence verification, failure handling, testing, and deployment. A major focus of the project was improving the reliability of agentic AI behavior. This included handling malformed model outputs, preventing duplicate tool execution, managing investigation prerequisites, controlling runtime limits, validating structured responses, and building regression tests for previously observed failures. The frontend presents investigations through a structured workspace where users can review the investigation overview, supporting evidence, conclusions, confidence, and execution state. Key technologies: React, TypeScript, Node.js, Zod, Vitest, LLM APIs, structured tool calling, and Render. softwareengineer #fullstackdeveloper #react #typescript #nodejs #artificialintelligence #llm #ai #webdeveloper #testing

Avelcourt - Editorial Fine Dining Website

Avelcourt is a concept fine-dining website designed and developed as a premium digital experience for a contemporary restaurant. I handled the project from visual direction through frontend implementation, focusing on an editorial approach rather than a traditional restaurant-template layout. The experience uses large-format typography, immersive photography, restrained motion, asymmetric compositions, and deliberate negative space to give the restaurant a distinct luxury identity. The site includes a responsive homepage, restaurant story, tasting menu experience, reservation flow, private dining, and visitor information, with interactions and transitions designed to feel cohesive across the entire experience. Built with: Next.js, React, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and Framer Motion. My focus was balancing strong art direction with usability, responsive behavior, performance, and maintainable frontend architecture. webdesigner #webdeveloper #frontenddeveloper #nextjs #react #typescript #tailwindcss #framermotion #uiux #luxurywebdesign #restaurantwebsite

Salo - Restaurant & Hospitality Website

Salo is a hospitality website concept built around a bold editorial visual system inspired by print, collage, and contemporary restaurant branding. I designed and developed the experience to feel less like a traditional restaurant website and more like a digital publication. The layout uses oversized typography, asymmetrical composition, layered imagery, high-contrast sections, and expressive transitions to create a strong identity while keeping the content easy to navigate. The project explores how a restaurant or hospitality brand can communicate personality through web design rather than relying on conventional card-based layouts and generic templates. My work covered visual direction, interface design, responsive frontend development, motion, layout systems, and overall user experience. webdesigner #webdeveloper #frontenddeveloper #uidesign #artdirection #hospitalitydesign #restaurantwebsite #editorialdesign #responsivewebdesign
