  1. ChildhoodIt started with curiosity.

    Long before I understood programming or cloud computing, I was already fascinated by technology. Computers and games made me want to know how it all worked, and that curiosity would eventually shape the path I chose.

  2. 2019Turning curiosity into education.

    I enrolled at FEU Institute of Technology for a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology, specialising in Animation and Game Development. It gave my curiosity a technical foundation: programming, problem-solving and how software is put together.

  4. 2025Learning technology from the ground up.

    My first full-time IT role, as a Field / Onsite Engineer for an HP service centre, put me in front of real hardware and real users at client and partner sites. It is where my troubleshooting habits were formed.

  5. 2026Supporting enterprise technology.

    Since July 2026 I have worked in HRIS Technical Support, giving Level 1 support for an HR information system used by seafarers and office staff. It widened my view from single machines to enterprise applications, data and operational workflows.

    • Resolve user-reported issues in the HRIS and escalate complex cases.
    • Support the HRIS implementation with the vendor, including data gathering and template completion.
    • Built a template tracker that automates and monitors implementation progress: HRIS Template Completion Tracker.
    • Document procedures and known fixes to speed up issue resolution.
