About Me
Building Digital Solutions That Matter
Hi, I'm Tharindu Gomis, a multifaceted IT and design professional with over a decade of experience in IT management, digital design, and educational support roles. Based in Rathmalana, Sri Lanka, I bring a unique blend of technical expertise and creative vision to every project.
My journey spans from managing IT infrastructure at Guidance International School to lecturing multimedia and design at Wijeya Graphics. I've worn many hats - IT Manager, Graphic Designer, Lecturer, and even Swimming Pool Manager - each role sharpening my ability to lead teams, solve complex problems, and deliver excellence.
I specialize in web development with Laravel/PHP and React/Next.js, complemented by strong design skills in Figma, Adobe Photoshop, and Illustrator. Whether it's building scalable web applications, designing compelling visual content, or managing technical infrastructure, I approach every challenge with attention to detail and commitment to quality.
