Just a little background

I specialise in creating intuitive and user-centred interfaces for a wide range of projects and experiences.

Darian Lee

I love exploring new technologies — whether it's experimenting with the latest JavaScript framework or geeking out about the latest Apple product (yes, I proudly embrace being an Apple fanboy). My passion lies in creating websites that prioritize exceptional user experiences.

Beyond the tech world, I have recently gotten into photography, experimenting with new lenses and cameras, and spending countless hours in Lightroom. I’ve also developed a love for bouldering — perhaps my way of staying active and connecting with the outdoors.

Interested in some photography?

I’m also a hobbyist photographer that enjoys travel and street photography. I primarily shoot with a digital camera but I like to experiment around with other formats as well. Hoping to get my hands on a Leica M6 one day.
