About Me 😁

Junior dev with varied interests.

Still searching for a specialization I can commit to while maintaining widely applicable skills.

Currently familair with many aspects of front-end development, back-end development, and ops.

📫 How To Reach Me

Drop me an email at my username at Gmail or a DM on Twitter if you need something.

I can provide other contact details if needed when there's a reason.

💼 Employment Status

Currently employed and not searching for anything at the moment.

🔭 Stuff I’m Currently Working On

Mostly full-stack web projects that touch on different parts of the tech stack from the front-end to the back-end and ops.

Repositories

My repos have become a bit polluted with forks I plan to customize later but haven't gotten around to, among other things 😅 Acive stuff is listed here.

💬 Stuff You Can Ask Me About

There's much I'm still learning, but I might be able to help if you need assistance with implementing full-stack projects that follow the Jamstack (Next.js + Directus) pattern.

Or if you just need general debugging/troubleshooting help with something tech-related (remote assistance through something like AnyDesk is an option).

⚡ Other Stuff That Sparks My Interest

🎮 My Hobbies

  • Tech
    • Game dev
      • Mostly a way to play around with and expand on mechanics I find interesting in games I play made by others.
  • Writing
    • Creative writing
      • Mostly short stories (some of which may see the light of day soon).
  • Art
    • 2D vector art
    • 3D modeling

Mainly playing around with automation techniques and procedural generation since I lack a traditional art background. Still leanring the essentials of perspective for 2D art, good topology for 3D (animated) art, and anatomy for both. I mostly practice with Bézier curves or CSS for 2D stuff, and poly modeling for 3D stuff. No plans to get into traditional 2D drawing or 3D sculpting anytime soon.
