7+ years of IT experience from the Philippines, now exploring Programming, Design, Artificial Intelligence, and Hardware in Yamaguchi, Japan. Building real skills in HTML, CSS, and modern design tools.
Exploring code,
design, and AI.
For 7 years, I worked as an IT Specialist at J.A.P. Grains Trading in the Philippines — setting up networks, configuring computers, managing cable systems, and supervising daily operations in a fast-paced trading environment. Working in that environment also inspired me to learn how programming and AI could transform traditional workflows and make daily transactions smoother.
On the operational side, I was strict in classifying incoming corn and paddy by quality and moisture — making sure only the right grade went through. I was also in charge of truck maintenance, keeping every vehicle road-ready to prevent breakdowns and ensure products arrived safely at rice mills and feed mills.
It taught me discipline, attention to detail, problem-solving under pressure, and how to communicate with teams.
Now in Yamaguchi, Japan, I'm exploring four new worlds — Programming, Design, Artificial Intelligence, and Hardware — using tools like Visual Studio Code, Figma, and modern AI workflows. I bring the same patience, curiosity, and reliability that carried me through every cable I've ever organized.
A career built on
hands-on practice.
Spent seven years building the IT backbone of J.A.P. Grains Trading — handling network setup, computer configuration, and cable management to keep the office running smoothly. Beyond IT, I supervised daily trading operations, staying strict in classifying incoming corn and paddy by quality and moisture to ensure only the right grade went through. I also took charge of truck maintenance, keeping every vehicle road-ready and ensuring deliveries reached rice and feed mills without delay. The role taught me how to wear multiple hats — switching between technical troubleshooting, quality control, and logistics coordination — often within the same day.
My first hands-on exposure to professional IT work. Spent three months assisting with network setup, configuration, and maintenance — supporting the installation of computers, servers, and related hardware across client sites. I learned the importance of cable management and equipment organization, while shadowing senior technicians on real troubleshooting tasks. It was where I first understood that IT is less about memorizing manuals and more about staying calm, methodical, and curious when things go wrong.
Earned my Bachelor's degree in Information Technology over four years at Far Eastern University. The program gave me solid foundations in programming, networking, database management, and systems analysis — the same fundamentals I still build on today. More than the technical knowledge, it taught me how to break complex problems into smaller pieces, work through challenges with patience, and stay open to learning new tools and approaches as the field evolves.
Life outside
the screen.
Communication
across borders.
Ready for the next
chapter.
I'm still learning the ropes — but if you have a project, opportunity, or just a question about my journey from IT to web development, I'd love to hear from you.
