I'm John Aldrin Plata, a developer from the Philippines building what's next.

My passion for technology started in childhood and has only grown since. My journey began at age twelve, when my curiosity about how browsers and applications worked led me to discover programming. After a quick search, I stumbled upon Visual Basic, installed it, and began following YouTube tutorials to build simple programs. What started as a hobby quickly turned into a deep fascination with how software shapes the world around us.

As I grew more confident, I transitioned to learning C#, diving beyond the basics to understand core programming principles and software design. That experience solidified my goal of becoming a professional developer, someone who doesn't just code, but crafts meaningful solutions.

Today, I continue to explore new technologies through technical books, online resources, and hands-on experimentation. Whether it's learning a new framework or understanding system architecture, I'm always driven by the same curiosity that first sparked my interest — the desire to build, learn, and innovate.
