About Me

A Creative Night Owl

I am a Toronto-based web developer with a graphic design background.

Both fields, design and development, started as side projects for me a long time ago. However, after a decade of treating them as such, I took the opportunity to turn them into a profession.

Today, as a graphic design graduate, I have a deeper understanding of layout, color, animation, and typography, skills that further complement my abilities as a developer.
