The handsome man behind this website

Curious by nature. Still learning.

Hey, I’m Rizal. I got into coding by tinkering with simple HTML pages and wondering, “what happens if I change this?” That curiosity stuck around. These days, I build things for the web and mobile, and I’m still finding better ways to do it.

I enjoy figuring out how the pieces fit together, from what you see on screen to what happens behind it. I try to keep things simple, useful, and easy for the next person to work on. There’s always something to learn, especially from the people I build with.

Lately, I’ve been exploring AI through small experiments and everyday projects. Away from that, you’ll usually find me tinkering with my Linux setup, sharing a dev video, or looking for a good iced coffee. Some habits are harder to debug than others.
