About Me

Hi there! I'm Alex 👋

I'm a passionate developer who believes code should be as creative as art. With a background in both technical development and creative design, I bring a unique perspective to every project I work on.

My journey started with a simple "Hello World" program, but it quickly evolved into a love affair with creating digital experiences that feel human, personal, and a little bit quirky.

My Story

Growing up, I was always fascinated by the intersection of technology and creativity. While other kids were playing video games, I was trying to figure out how they were made. This curiosity led me down a path of discovery that continues to this day.

I've spent the last 5+ years honing my craft, working on everything from small personal projects to large-scale applications. Each project teaches me something new and fuels my passion for creating meaningful digital experiences.

When I'm not coding, you'll find me sketching ideas, exploring new technologies, or trying to make my coffee taste just a little bit better (it's an ongoing project).

My Development Philosophy

🎨

Code is Art

I believe that well-written code is a form of creative expression. It should be elegant, readable, and maintainable.

👥

User-Centered Design

Every line of code I write is with the end user in mind. Technology should serve people, not the other way around.
