This Website

A custom-built portfolio created to showcase my work in filmmaking and software engineering in a single cohesive experience. Rather than using a template or a website builder, I designed and developed the site from scratch using modern web technologies, allowing complete control over presentation, performance, and functionality.

Selected work from recent film and digital projects.
