Background

About Me

I am a self-taught full-stack developer based in Malta.

My passion for programming comes from building complete applications that solve real problems. Rather than learning only through tutorials, I prefer developing full projects where I can work on every part of the system—from database design and authentication to responsive interfaces and deployment.

My strongest experience is with PHP, MySQL, JavaScript, HTML and CSS, and I enjoy continuously improving my skills by creating real-world applications.

I leverage advanced AI development tools as part of my daily workflow to increase productivity, rapidly prototype ideas, solve complex programming challenges and improve code quality. Rather than relying on generated code blindly, I understand, review, modify and optimize every implementation to ensure maintainability, performance and security.
