I graduated with a BS Information Technology degree from City College of Calamba in June 2025. I’m still building my web skills through project work, and my internship gave me practice inside an existing website and team workflow.

What helps me most is opening the page and trying to use it. Can I find what I need? Does the text fit on a phone? Does the button lead to the right place?

What I did during my internship

From January to April 2025, I was a Web Developer Intern at Gencys Digital Trading Inc. I worked on WordPress and Elementor page updates for Exponential University, checked browser and screen-size behavior, and recorded UI issues in Jira.

Those were contributions to an existing platform. The internship case study explains that scope.

What I practice on my own website

My portfolio gives me a place to try small changes and check whether they help. One example is the CV link: it now opens the PDF in a new tab, so someone can read it first and choose whether to download it.

Another is the footer. A logo needs to stay visible in both light and dark presentation. Adding the file is only the first step.

My short review routine

  • Open the main page on a wide and narrow screen.
  • Follow the key links and controls.
  • Check the supported themes.
  • Look at loading, empty, and missing-page states.
  • Write down the issue clearly enough to repeat it.

I use Codex and Antigravity for AI-assisted implementation and revisions. I set the task, review the changes, and check the page. I’m still learning the tools behind the projects.

The graduation portrait and internship photograph come from my LinkedIn profile. The project screenshots show actual interfaces. Keeping those contexts separate is part of presenting my work honestly.

Connect learning to something another person can inspect

A completed course or degree provides context, but a project gives someone a way to see how I apply what I am learning. My portfolio links the internship contribution, independent projects, and CV so that each can be evaluated in its own context.

My June 2025 graduation post on LinkedIn records an important point in that journey. The internship photographs document the college OJT period. They serve a different purpose from the current website screenshots: one shows the experience, while the other shows an interface that can be inspected today. I want that distinction to remain clear as I improve the site and continue building practical web skills.

A milestone from my own journey
