Why did I make this website:
I’ve always wanted to create a website that's more than just a portfolio for companies to browse — a personal space that reflects individuality.
I also keep myself away from over-commercialized platforms that are cluttered with Temu ads and unauthorized personal data tracking algorithms. So here it is — a website designed to capture the internet at its purest, a digital space that’s personal, creative, and free.
I often think back to the early 2000s, when crafting your own blogs on simple HTML pages was the norm — a raw, unfiltered form of self-expression. Nowadays, it feels like everyone, myself included, is caught up in the endless doom scroll of Instagram reels.
