About Me

I'm a self-taught software developer and photographer based in Queensland, Australia, with a passion for building meaningful digital experiences. Since 2021, I’ve been combining creativity and problem-solving to design tools that empower others—whether that’s through intuitive software or impactful imagery. My flexibility allows me to work across a wide range of projects, from full-stack web development to visual storytelling. I thrive in fast-paced environments, adapt quickly to new challenges, and love sharing what I learn along the way.
