About

Hi there! I'm a self-taught developer with a background in mechanical engineering (graduated from Multimedia University). After discovering my passion for web development, I made a career change and became a frontend web developer. Currently working as a Senior Software Engineer in Renalworks.

I'm passionate in learning new technologies, building responsive websites, and documenting my working process when it comes to complicated features.

Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:

  • JavaScript
  • React
  • NextJs
  • Vue
  • TypeScript
  • Redux
  • Material UI
  • jQuery
