About Me
I'm Jhames Andrew Macabata, a Computer Science graduate from Pambayang Dalubhasaan ng Marilao in the Philippines. I'm building toward a career at the intersection of software engineering, data, and AI — domains I find genuinely exciting because they produce things that work in the real world. My background started on the frontend (HTML, JavaScript, web apps), and I'm now deliberately expanding into backend development, data engineering, and machine learning through hands-on project work.
