Hi, I'm Bikash Moktan
I build
A developer & designer based in Columbia, South Carolina — turning complex ideas into interfaces that feel effortless, fast and genuinely human.
About me
Curious by default,
builder by habit.
I'm a full-stack developer and UI designer based in Columbia, South Carolina. Originally from Kathmandu, Nepal, I've spent the last several years shipping web products — from public-sector portals to retail tooling and small business sites — with an obsession for performance, accessibility and the tiny details that make people smile.
My path ran through the retail floor at Office Depot and the public-service systems at the SC Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulations — two very different worlds that taught me the same lesson: good software is just good listening, written down.
When I'm not writing code, you'll find me exploring the Midlands trails, sketching interfaces in a notebook, or over-engineering my coffee routine.
