About me

As a seasoned voice actor and audio engineer, I've had the pleasure of bringing characters to life in indie games and animations, infusing emotion and depth into every role. My career has always been driven by a passion for creation and storytelling, from producing engaging content on YouTube to collaborating with authors, developers and artists to craft compelling audio experiences.

Now, I am channeling that same creative energy into a new direction: software engineering. As a student at the Turing School of Software & Design, I am diving into the world of programming, where my love for creating meaningful experiences finds new expression. The excitement of building interactive, user-friendly applications has become my new canvas for storytelling.

I believe that software development, like voice acting, is about crafting experiences that resonate with people. This transition allows me to blend the creativity of a performer with the problem-solving skills of an engineer, bringing a unique perspective to every project. I am driven by the opportunity to create digital products that are not only functional but also engaging and memorable.

I am eager to bring my experience, creativity, and passion to a dynamic and innovative environment where I can continue to grow, collaborate, and make a meaningful impact. Let's connect and explore how we can combine creative storytelling with software development to build digital experiences that truly stand out.

One Piece Crash Cruise is an application that allows users to explore various arcs from the popular manga and anime series "One Piece". Users can search for specific arcs, view details such as major players, important moments, and even a major spoiler moment. The app also allows users to favorite their preferred arcs, which persist even after refreshing the page. A major challenge and win of this project was the creation of my own API via express.
