Hired at VizServe
Shortly after graduating, I was hired at VizServe Private Limited as an Associate System Developer. Since then I've been building and revamping real-world systems — online admission platforms, recruitment automation, a student information system, and WordPress sites serving thousands of users monthly.
- July – December 2024· Codebility
Frontend Developer Training — Codebility
Straight out of university I completed Codebility's Frontend Developer Training Program (29 July – 2 December 2024) — modern web frameworks, Next.js, version control with Git, and building responsive, accessible interfaces. I shipped two projects on the programme: a responsive Deadpool and Wolverine site and an e-commerce storefront. It was the bridge between graduating and being hired.
- July 2024· Laguna University
Graduation
After five years at Laguna University (Aug 2019 – July 2024), I earned my Bachelor of Science in Information Technology. Graduating as the sole developer behind our capstone project was a proud moment that marked the end of one chapter and the start of the next.
- 2023 - 2024· Laguna University
Capstone Project — IGotYou: Multimedia Booking System
For our capstone project, I took on the role of sole developer for our entire group — handling everything from system design to implementation. Building IGotYou end-to-end on my own was a defining milestone — it proved I could take a project from concept to completion independently.
- 2022· Laguna University
Frontend Competition — 4th Place
While studying at Laguna University, I joined a school frontend development competition and placed 4th. It was my first taste of competitive programming and pushed me to take web development more seriously, sharpening both my skills and my drive to improve.
- Early Beginnings· Calamba City, Laguna
Hello, World!
Every developer has a beginning — mine was a simple `Hello, World!` printed on a screen. That one line of output was enough to ignite a passion for coding that I've carried ever since throughout my studies and career.
