Frontend Developer
Hi, I’m Rylan. I design and build modern frontend applications with a focus on user experience, performance, and clean architecture. I specialize in creating scalable React applications and building complex, data-driven interfaces.
My journey into software development began in 2020, leading me through a full-stack bootcamp in Melbourne and into professional work at Block Majority. There I’ve delivered 4+ applications for clients, including contracted work with ANZ designing and building enterprise-grade features and financial technology solutions.
When I’m away from the keyboard, I’m usually problem-solving on my skateboard. After two decades on the board, I apply the same mindset and habits to building software — iteration, determination, resilience, attention to detail, and creative thinking.
