What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a Graduate or Junior Software Engineer role where I can ship production code, build user-focused web applications, and grow through hands-on collaboration. I'm available for full-time work from February 2027.

I'm shipping production PHP/MySQL tools at Mission to Seafarers Victoria, including a responsive foreign-exchange app used daily by 90+ staff and volunteers. I integrated live Commonwealth Bank exchange rates, built AUSTRAC-compliant audit exports, and strengthened access controls using the BetterImpact API.

Alongside my Master of IT, I've deployed five web projects using React, JavaScript, REST APIs, and Bootstrap, from movie and e-commerce platforms to a real-time weather dashboard. My previous work at Seoul City Government built my ability to deliver under pressure, manage stakeholders, and turn user needs into clearer digital experiences.
