Online, I go by the name of Nyokie.

Pronunciation varies but oftentimes pronounced as "knee-oh-key" or "nigh-oh-key".

People I know personally call me John or JC other than Nyokie.

I am a 20 year old Filipino college student residing in the Philippines. I also have a bunch of hobbies.

I started producing music around late 2019 when I tried using Auxy on my iPhone, since then I tinkered with the app with no prior knowledge about music production, let alone music theory. Only in mid 2020 when I joined a community that encouraged all forms of arts and hobbies did I further expand my understanding and knowledge with music production. Since then I had a newfound passion for music. I can play various instruments such as the guitar, keyboard, percussions / drums and woodwind and reeds. I had only been playing the recorder for years and a harmonica, but I eventually turned to my old guitar to relearn it and an old piano in my home. As of december 2023 I am a proud owner of my Stratocaster, an electric guitar which I have modified a lot of times to fulfil my urges and personal taste.

As for arts, I also tried my hand at sketching around early 2020. My only previous experience with freehand drawing was from tracing images, but with time and confidence, I finally learned how to produce sketches I could be proud of.

My programming experience dates back to 2017 where in I was invited to join my junior high school's robotics club. Ive participated in multiple competitions locally and even submitting my papers to a competition overseas. There was no quitting the club for me since I really enjoyed the work I did. Around 2019, I put my programming experience from robotics club to the test by making a discord music bot as a side project leading to the development and hosting of my music bot "nyokie bot".

As of 2023, I have enrolled myself in the Bachelor of Science in Information Technology. Surely I could further improve my current skills.
