About

Hello there! My name is Eunice and I'm a junior web developer. I am a recent graduate from NAIT's Digital Media and IT program, under the Web Design and Development stream. I strive to create visually engaging websites without compromising performance. With a strong eye for detail, I approach every project with a commitment to delivering high-quality, pixel-perfect results. I am committed to continuously learning new skills and techniques to stay on top of industry trends.

My passion in creating for the web began back in 2011 when I submitted some (admittedly terrible) GIFs I made to one of the biggest Harry Potter update accounts on the now closed-down Multiply.com to use for their theme — and they actually used it! However, my first exposure to web languages wasn't until 2014, when the pursuit of having an aesthetic Tumblr blog led me to editing a lot of custom themes and learning a lot about HTML and CSS in the process.

During the pandemic, I decided to learn coding formally. I started a Python course online, however, I felt out of my depth. I backtracked and was determined to learn from the basics. I took the Responsive Web Design course offered by freeCodeCamp. I loved doing the little projects that came with the course, and so I resolved to go back to school and get a diploma so I could keep doing this for a living (I previously finished a 2-year program for Practical Nursing and was a license-holder). I enrolled in the program I am now and the rest is history.

Outside of coding…

I enjoy traveling (I am always the designated trip planner!), listening to music, going to concerts, watching K-dramas, and playing video games. I'm also an avid fan of BTS and Harry Potter.

I'm also proficient in three languages beyond web development syntaxes. Born and raised in the Philippines, I am fluent in my native Tagalog in addition to English. I can also read and write in Korean (한국어) and can speak the language conversationally, a skill I picked up thanks to my many years of watching Korean shows.
