My Works

Welcome to my portfolio! Here, you'll find a collection of my work in web development, video game design, and art. Each project dives deep into my thought process, challenges I faced, and how I overcame them—giving you an inside look at how I bring ideas to life.

Web Development

For me, web development is more than just code—it's about creating experiences. I love bringing ideas to life through clean, functional, and visually engaging designs. Whether it's crafting smooth user interactions, optimizing performance, or experimenting with new tech, I’m always pushing to make the web more intuitive and exciting. Every project is a chance to blend creativity with problem-solving, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

The Rink


I designed and developed a visually engaging landing page for a client’s outdoor ice-skating event, seamlessly integrating it into their existing website. The goal was to create an intuitive and appealing experience for users to purchase tickets effortlessly.

With a swift 3-day turnaround after receiving deliverables and an additional 2 days for revisions, I ensured a polished final product that met the client’s needs efficiently. The page enhances the overall user experience while aligning with the brand’s aesthetic.

Art Design

Art design has been my passion since I was 8 years old. For me, it's all about creativity and expression. Whether it’s crafting illustrations, building a visual identity, or working on comics, I strive to make each piece meaningful and impactful. Every design is an opportunity to tell a story and communicate ideas in a way that resonates.

Annie May


Annie May hails from one of the most influential families in the kingdom, where privilege and power have shaped her worldview. Raised in luxury, she often sees the world through the lens of her elitist upbringing, unaware of the struggles others face. Her father, a high-ranking Elemental Magician and innovator in new-age technology, set the stage for her prosperous life, while her mother, a visionary in her own right, branched off to create cutting-edge pharmaceuticals and potions.

Annie May herself possesses a unique power that reflects her animalistic nature—blessed with the ability to transform into a K9, she embodies the fierce and loyal traits of a dog. While her powers are undeniably strong, they are often a metaphor for her inner conflict between her sheltered existence and the untapped potential she has yet to discover about herself and the world beyond her family's wealth.

Brenden


Brenden’s rise to fame is nothing short of extraordinary. Born into a family that was once unheard of, he became famous after receiving the power of the eagle at age 3, granting him the ability to see everything—from people’s blessed gifts to their maximum aura output. To tame his overwhelming perception, Brenden wears a blindfold. At just 17, he became one of the three youngest animalistics to graduate from the Blessed Magica University for the Gifted, despite the age requirement. With his rapid rise through the ranks of the Liberation Knights, Brenden is now set to face the Echelon Examination Tournament, where his success could elevate his status and place him within the noble echelon.

His family, now known as the All-ins, has gained recognition for their unwavering dedication to their lineage’s success. Once unknown, they have gone all in—investing everything into ensuring that their next generations rise to prominence. Their newfound status has also drawn the watchful eyes of the Gifted Society, making Brenden’s journey all the more significant.

Thank you for exploring my portfolio. Creativity has been a driving force in my life since I was eight years old, fueling my passion for design, storytelling, and immersive experiences. Earning my degree in Interactive Media from Franklin University (summa cum laude) was a step toward bringing my visions to life—whether through web development, video games, or art.
