About Mark Adrianne Salunga

Hi, I'm passionate about creating digital experiences that are intuitive, useful, and enjoyable to use. I work across graphic design, UI/UX, and full-stack development, building both web and mobile applications with modern technologies. Being involved in both design and development allows me to take ideas from early concepts to polished, fully deployed products while keeping the user experience at the center of every decision.

Personal Experience

Self-directed AI practice alongside formal roles — two years of learning to work with AI, not just chat with it.

  1. Learning to Use AI Properly

    Internship | 2024

    • Learned to properly use AI as an intern in 2024, building a habit of deliberate, task-oriented prompting
    • Started applying AI to real design and development tasks instead of one-off questions

  2. Prompt Engineering Foundations

    Self-directed learning | 2025

    • Improved basic prompt engineering through daily, hands-on practice
    • Learned to break tasks down clearly so models produce more reliable, useful output

  3. Agentic Workflows & Loop Engineering

    Self-directed learning | 2026 – Present

    • Learned agentic workflows this year, delegating multi-step tasks to parallel agents and sub-agents
    • Leveled up to better prompt engineering and loop engineering for iterative, self-correcting runs
    • Gained practical knowledge of LLMs across agent harnesses including Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, DeepSeek, and Hermes Agent, with SKILLs that extend native workflows
    • Automating basic, repetitive tasks to free up time for design and development work
    • Work primarily with OpenAI GPT and Anthropic Claude, plus other modern frontier models via APIs and custom providers
