Apih

Hello world,
I'm Apih.

Software Engineering graduate from Universiti Malaysia Terengganu. Most of what I build lives inside organisations: dashboards, internal tools and apps that take the busywork out of someone's day.

Got an idea that's been sitting in your notes app for way too long? That's my favourite kind of problem. Say hi.
