Hi there! I'm Rafi
I'm a Computer Science (Software Engineering) student who builds things for the web at the University of Malaya. I got into programming through web development back in school, and I've been building ever since.

I'm pursuing my Bachelor of Computer Science (Software Engineering) at University of Malaya. Alongside that I'm active in student organizations: Technical Executive Committee at PEKOM, the Computer Science Society of the Faculty of Computer Science & IT, and Head of Website Division in the Data & Information System Bureau at PPI Malaysia, where I own the association's official website end to end.

Beyond that I lead as Head of Department for the IDFEST Art Exhibition at Universiti Malaya, and I served as a Student Buddy for FSKTM's Inbound Mobility Programme 2026, hosting Chulalongkorn University students in Kuala Lumpur. I've also worked on PPI Malaysia's LARAS committee, coordinating transportation and field operations for events serving hundreds of participants.

Outside of code I enjoy sharing knowledge and explaining technical topics simply, which is mostly why the blog exists. Want to talk shop, work on something together, or just say hi? Let's build something.
