AI/Software Development
I'm Benedict, a 4th-year Computer Science student at De La Salle Lipa who builds practical web products across the stack. I care about the details users never see, like clean data access, clear contracts between teammates, and edge cases caught before they ship.
I'm currently a Front-end Developer Intern at Cortico Health Technologies. Before that, I led backend at ANIMO.DEV for Project QOL, an attendance system for campus organizations.
