what started as a university project has become my home on the internet for multiple years. this website has gone through many redesigns, each better showcasing how my skills have grown and what i am capable of.

v1 of this site was written in plain HTML, while v2 was written from the ground up in React, and both were designed and developed without the use of AI.

the carousel above shows a few different designs this site has been through. i feel a great sense of ownership on all of these designs. i love seeing how much my design skills have grown, and i love how they distinguish the different chapters of my professional life.

this version of my site (v3) was inspired by many things: blob motion tracking, space (outer wilds game), satellites, terminals, and more. i get inspired by many different forms of art, and i finally feel like the aesthetics i take an interest in have matured enough to where i can build upon them.

v3 is written in next.js, with the assistance of codex, and is hosted through cloudflare. i spent my time on the design, as i wanted to see what i was capable of at this point in my career. while AI was used for the implementations of my designs, it was not used for the conception of them, and i am very proud of how it turned out.

it has been wonderful to see this site grow with me. each visual update marks a milestone in my professional life, and shows me how much i have learned about coding, design, and how to make my experiences and interests as digestible as possible.

a lot of love goes into this site, and i hope it shows :).
