About
In 2022, I wrapped up my studies in Computer Science and, after my finals, chose to dive straight into the job market rather than pursuing further education. It wasn't a smooth start—I faced over 50 rejections, whether it was failed interviews, ignored emails, or resumes tossed aside. But persistence paid off, and I eventually secured a position at a creative agency.
Fast forward to today, I'm focused on building accessible user interfaces for AIA Malaysia. I take pride in crafting web apps that strike the perfect balance between thoughtful design and robust engineering—clean, simple visuals with a strong technical foundation. When I'm not coding, you'll find me exploring new programming languages and paradigms.
And when I'm away from the screen, I make valiant attempts at healthy habits like reading or, as the kids say, "touching grass"—it’s a work in progress.
