• Hands-on experience with prototyping and coding, with a solid technical foundation in front-end (JavaScript, HTML) and back-end (Python, Node.js).
• Portfolio demonstrating tech-driven creative work that is original, standout, and visually engaging.
• Knowledge of UI/UX best practices and a strong sense of design aesthetics.
• Excited by experimenting with AI and emerging technologies to create work that sticks.
