Release Day!

Today (5th of May 2025) I’m releasing my personal website to the internet that includes information about me like hobbies/interests, my career history, projects I’ve worked on and a blog for myself to make posts either about projects in current development, thoughts and more. I will be working on the backend and frontend to try to fix any problems throughout the lifetime of this website and improve upon what is already live and available to see. If you notice any issues with the website, please go to my contact form, for the ‘Reason for Contact’, select the ‘bug report’ option and let me know what the issue is.

This personal website allows me to showcase projects I’ve worked on, both in the future and the past. I can also make development blog posts on each project I’m working on and talk about the process/thoughts of the project, or make announcements in my blog for anything upcoming for me to work on or I’ll be doing etc.

Futhermore, I can make sub-domains for projects, for example if I make a browser based application that I want to show or give a demo of, I can just make a sub-domain where anyone can access it and try it out without the need to download anything. I feel there’s a lot of opportunities I can have with this personal website and hope I can make the most out of it.

Goals So Far This Year

  • Build more software projects (either big or small in any language)
  • Try work on non-software based projects
  • Work on YouTube videos (either project based or other)
  • Improve my Japanese (Try get to N4 level)
  • Pass the AWS SAA-003 certificate

I have a lot of work to do and I hope to achieve all of my goals this year. I’m going to work as hard as I can to achieve them so let’s see how many goals I can complete and come back to this post in a year from now or the start of 2026.
