About

A little about me.

Started freelancing in 2022 during my CS degree and built a full client roster in Australia before I graduated.

Three years in, 50+ projects delivered, all five star rated. Most of that work has been Shopify builds and React apps for small businesses and agencies across Australia.

BSc Computer Science, Tribhuvan University (2025). IELTS 7.0. Open to remote roles and freelance projects.

Shopify is where I do my deepest work - custom Liquid architecture, metafields systems, filter logic, theme migrations. The Dukes Coffee rebuild is the clearest example of that depth.

On the React and Next.js side I have shipped a full CMS frontend from scratch during an internship and a live restaurant order system currently running in production.

This portfolio itself is built on Next.js 15.
