01 — About

A little about me

I'm a Computer Science student at the University of Cabuyao (Class of 2027) who builds across the stack, with a focus on blockchain, AI and cybersecurity.

In 2026 I shipped five projects. I built the blockchain layer and deployed the full cloud system for Kumpirma, our AI-verified document authentication thesis; built the backend for Lunas, 8th place overall at SIKAPTala 2026, a national CS and IT competition; reached the Top 8 at DOST Hack4Progress with AGOS, an AI flood early-warning system; and built the backend for RedQuest, a blood-donation app.

Outside code, I've led finances for two student tech communities, JBECP and the AWS Cloud Club, and I'm deepening my security skills through Google and Packt certifications.

Currently — Leading OUTRUN, a 2.5D chase game, as project manager, and finishing my CS degree.

    “Working with Emiel has been a great experience. I worked alongside him on LUNAS, where he was part of the backend development team while I was part of the frontend team. Through our collaboration, I was able to see how he approaches development tasks and contributes to a shared project. One thing I appreciate about working with Emiel is the opportunity to exchange ideas and gain different perspectives. He is willing to question assumptions and explore alternative approaches, helping bring new perspectives to existing ideas. I believe this makes him a valuable person to work with.”
