ABOUT THIS PLACE
A web is made of
many threads.
Monica's Web is my personal hub, a single place where everything comes together. Apps, freelance work, creative projects, things that matter, things worth sharing. Not a portfolio, not a blog exactly. More like a home base.
It started from a simple feeling: too many things scattered in too many places. A project here, a link there, an idea that never made it anywhere at all. Monica's Web exists to bring it all under one roof, intentional, connected, and true to who I am.
“One place for everything I build, everything I love, and everything I’m becoming.”
THE PERSON BEHIND THE WEB
I've always been most happy when I'm helping others. I found that through holistic therapy, beauty therapy and Reiki. There's a feeling you get when someone leaves a session and they're just a little lighter than when they came in. That connection, knowing you've played a small part in someone's day is so fulfilling.
That need for connection is what pulls me outside too. Nature genuinely recharges me. I love how the spring blooms feed the harvest and how the fall folds back into spring. How it isn't always perfect but it connected and always comes back around in a full circle. Nature just knows, there's no forcing it, no skipping a season. It all connects, and I find something really grounding in that.
It's the same thread that runs through the apps I build. If I can connect someone with something useful, something that makes their day a little easier or better, that's exactly what I'm here for. Monica's Web is my hub for all of it, the work, the projects, the things I care about, all connected in one place.
When I'm not at my desk you'll normally find me with Max, my dog, walking, playing, discovering new places together. I got him for my mum when she lost her husband, my stepdad, a warm little soul for her to come home to. When I lost her, he became that for me. I didn't see it coming. But of course it happened that way. Becoming his sole guardian, losing my mum, is what gave me the push to make a big change. I moved into web development, something I'd always wanted but kept talking myself out of. I always worried I wasn't good enough. But life has showed me you can't just count on things staying the same. Like the seasons, sometimes you have to let one thing end to move into something new. Another cycle. Another full circle. The circle of it isn't lost on me, It never is.
