about
hi, i'm kelvin — a software human who leans toward the front-end. i build small, calm things on the web and care a lot about how they feel to use.
philosophy
i think good design is quiet. it gets out of the way, respects your attention, and works for everyone. i'd rather make something simple and considered than busy and clever.
current interests
design engineering
where code and design stop being separate things.
the small web
tiny interfaces — pixel art included — with a lot of soul.
game dev, on the side
slowly building a little game, one weekend at a time.
timeline
started programming
opened a text file and wrote some html because i was curious.
first website
a single page that probably broke on mobile.
first game
a tiny thing that barely worked — and i loved it.
learned figma
finally starting to understand how design actually thinks.
building personal website
this one. slow, intentional, and mine.
faq
what do you work on?
mostly front-end — design systems, small sites, occasional experiments.
are you available for work?
sometimes. say hi through the contact page.
why a personal site?
the web is nicer when people make their own quiet corners.
uses
View all →hardware
a thin laptop, a mechanical keyboard, and too many notebooks.
software
figma, a code editor, and a terminal i'm still learning to respect.
tools
a notes app for the loose ideas, pen and paper for the real ones.
currently reading
the design of everyday things
slow going, and worth every page.
a few web essays
saved, half-read, and revisited often.
currently listening
lofi & ambient playlists
for focus, mostly.
afrobeats, on weekends
non-negotiable.
