Purposefully Driven! 

About Me

Hi, I'm Chinonso John Nkpolukwu (John for short). I'm a Melbourne based Software Developer, passionate about using code to create user-friendly front-end designs that solve complex problems.

Since 2020, after printing my first "hello world", I've immersed myself in the software development space. Transitioning from the Digital Marketing agency world using tools like HTML, CSS, Javascript, Wordpress, Shopify, Adobe, Figma to the more technical frontend development with tech stacks like React (Typescript), Node , Ruby on Rails, etc. The tools may have changed but the goal has always remained the same. Solving problems and creating intuitive, enjoyable experiences for users.

When I'm not immersed in the web dev world, you'll find me in the outdoors, playing soccer and exploring Melbourne.
