Hello there! 👋
If you want to use AI, vibe coding, UX/UI design, and hands-on development to turn your ideas into real digital products, you’re in the right place 😆
My name is Jay. I hold a Master’s degree in Interaction Design and am currently pursuing further studies in Computer Science. I’m a UX/UI Designer and Frontend Engineer based in Sydney, with a strong interest in helping people turn ideas into practical, scalable products.
I specialise in UX/UI design and frontend development because I believe great products should not only work well, but also feel intuitive, useful, and enjoyable to use.
I also understand that learning programming can feel overwhelming, especially when you are starting from scratch. With today’s AI tools, however, you do not need to know everything before you begin. I can help you use AI effectively while still understanding the design and development decisions behind what you build.
My goal is not just to teach you how to code. I want to help you build something meaningful, improve your skills, and become more confident in turning your ideas into reality.
### Here’s what I can help you with:
* Use AI and vibe coding to build frontend and full-stack applications
* Turn business or startup ideas into working digital products
* Learn frontend development through practical, hands-on projects
* Improve your UX/UI design and product thinking
* Build a strong portfolio that stands out from other candidates
* Create and improve your resume for internships and junior roles
* Learn how to become a self-taught software developer
* Get unstuck when learning programming or building projects
* Work through assignments, projects, and practical development tasks together
* Learn how UX/UI, development, and AI work together in real products
### You’ll be a great fit if you:
* Want to use AI or vibe coding to build your dream product
* Enjoy UX/UI design, coding, or product development
* Want to create real projects instead of only watching tutorials
* Are open to challenges, feedback, and improving your work
* Want practical guidance while developing your technical skills 😃

Book a free introductory call during your 7-day trial and we can discuss your goals, current skills, and the best learning path for you.
### Areas I’m not the best fit for:
My mentorship is mainly focused on product development, UX/UI, frontend engineering, AI-assisted development, and practical full-stack projects.
I’m probably not the right mentor if your main focus is:
* Advanced Data Structures
* Advanced Algorithms
* LeetCode interview preparation
* Heavy cybersecurity
* Large-scale distributed systems and infrastructure
### Which learning plan should you choose?
**Lite Plan**
Best for beginners who want to explore AI-assisted coding, frontend development, or UX/UI but are not sure where to start or have limited time to learn.
**Standard Plan**
Best if you want to build your own business product with AI, cre

I highly recommend Jay. I came from a product/delivery background with minimal design experience, but under Jay’s guidance, I will have fully re-designed two web products launching next month. Jay’s helped me with everything from high-level UX to granular design challenges while keeping our sessions focused on my specific goals. My output speed and design quality have improved astronomically.

I’ve been continuing my mentorship with Jay and I’m still really happy with how it’s going. Our sessions are easy to follow and actually useful. Jay explains things clearly and takes the time to understand where I’m at before giving advice. What I like most is that the guidance feels practical and realistic. We talk through problems step by step, and I always leave with a clearer idea of what to focus on next. The conversations don’t feel rushed or scripted, just honest and helpful. Overall, working with Jay has helped me stay more focused and confident in my direction. I’d recommend him to anyone looking for a mentor who’s supportive, straightforward, and genuinely wants to help.
