About Me

Hello, I'm a software engineer & developer based in the Philippines, and I conserve an expressive passion for user interface, visual design, and creating intuitive, dynamic user experiences.

Given enough coffee and inexhaustible enthusiasm, I am easily inspired and more willing to follow my ideas wherever they take me. I'm a dynamic person, an expressive, talented spirit with an innate ability to entertain and inspire. I'm never satisfied with just coming up with ideas. Instead, I have an almost impulsive need to act on them.

I'm also experienced in and completed various responsive website designs, front-end assets, and custom WordPress builds.

Hobby-turned-Business

thy keycabz

What started as a weekend hobby quickly turned into a business. I build, modify, and fine-tune mechanical keyboards — from switch modding and lube work to full acoustic optimization. Every board I put together is all about getting the sound and feel just right.

Beyond the builds, I've organized keyboard meetups with my previous organizations and alma mater, bringing the community together to share the craft. thy keycabz has helped me a lot with my extra income, and I'm still in touch and active in the Keyboard Addicts PH community as a passionate enthusiast.

Co-Founded Venture

Cryptobuds

Cryptobuds is a crypto community I co-founded — focused on teaching how NFTs and blockchain projects actually work. We're active on different networks, running Discord talks for members who want to understand the space beyond the noise. The goal was never hype — it was building real literacy and helping people navigate web3 with confidence.

Supporting & Managing

Yo-Bi

Yo-Bi is my brother's music project — and I'm the one behind the scenes keeping the digital side running. From managing the online presence and visual identity to supporting content strategy and branding, I handle what needs to happen so the creative output reaches the right audience.

Music runs in the family. While he writes and performs, I make sure the brand stays consistent and the content stays sharp across every platform.

Yo-Bi

THE DEVELOPER
BEHIND THE WORK.

Thoughtful systems. Interfaces that respect the user. Code that feels intentional. Always building, always learning.

Kudos

Good work doesn't happen in isolation — and I'll be the first to admit that. Whether it's design, ideas, UX, process, software engineering, mentorship, advice, or creative direction, these people have shaped how I think, how I build, and who I've become along the way.

My big brother inside and outside our company. His mentorship sharpened my engineering instincts and pushed me to think bigger.

James Nelson Olaño

Shaped my software development work ethics. His discipline and standards left a lasting mark on how I approach every project.

The love of my life. She keeps me grounded, sane, and loved — my inspiration behind everything I create.
