About Me

As an avid problem solver, I am always on the lookout to learn new things. What helps me keep motivated is that I seek to create things that can help other people in various nifty ways, which is usually how I plan out my future projects!

ROBLOX!

The first time I was actually exposed to programming was back when I was in Grade 5: Trying to make a quick buck, I learned the scripting language LUA through youtube tutorials over the summer break. With these, I made simple elemental battle games, and a pong clone from scratch.

Away From Keyboard

Aside from coding, I usually like to exercise at our dorm gym, play with friends through discord calls, and send random Instagram reels to them throughout the day. These things that I do outside of my career helps me keep inspired and keep thinking of new creative ways to think about things.

One Big Fight

I am currently a Computer Science at Ateneo de Manila University as an Ateneo Freshman Merit Scholar (Only the top 60 out of all the passers receive this award, the highest possible distinction awarded to first-year students!).

Aside from Ateneo, I can also proudly say that I’ve passed the Big 4! These include University of the Philippines - Diliman, De La Salle University, and University of Santo Tomas, all in BS Computer Science.

I do orgworks too

I am active in my course’s home org, The Computer Society of the Ateneo Here, I really try to hone my management and communication skills by working with other people by organizing events. So far, I’ve been a Marketing Core Team for Blue Hacks 2025, our org’s yearly flagship event.

I love learning..

I really like learning new things, especially endeavors related to my field. Whether it’s through online courses, tutorials, or hands-on projects, I love exploring new topics and pushing myself to grow. I believe that staying curious and open to new ideas is the key to personal and professional growth. Here are some of the courses I've finished so far:

CS50

CS50's Introduction to Computer Science helped me wet my feet on CS by learning topics on data structures and algorithms, basic web development, databases, and basic cybersecurity.

ML Specialization

The Machine Learning Specialization by Stanford and DeepLearning.AI made me aware of how AI affects our present by learning topics on supervised, unsupervised learning, and reinforcement learning.

The Odin Project

The Odin Project has helped me learn the fundamentals of full-stack development by learning advanced HTML, CSS, and Javascript along with learning various frameworks.

..and I also like competing!

When I have the time, I also like to compete. Recently, me and a few friends have just competed in an IT Business Case competition, where we were challenged to propose a solution to a real-world problem. We proposed FORTRESS, a FIDO2-based risk observation, evaluation and security scoring, landing in the top 10.
