digital reality
I'm an IT undergraduate at Sri Lanka Institute of Information Technology (SLIIT) majoring in Web Development, with expected graduation in 2028. My journey in tech started early with a Diploma in Web Design & Development from Sipnara Computer Academy in 2017.
My passion lies in building scalable web applications and crafting exceptional digital experiences. I have hands-on experience with full-stack development, working extensively with the MERN stack, Java-based web technologies, and PHP.
I follow Agile methodologies and have practical experience in requirement analysis, UI/UX design, and delivering production-ready applications that serve real users.
