Care for people.
Build useful things.
Stay curious.

I’m John Villanueva—a California CNA and BSN candidate. Before healthcare, I worked in business banking, marketing, and web projects. I still use what those jobs taught me about listening, explaining, staying organized, and following through.

Hi, I’m John. Nursing is the focus. The projects and hobbies are the rest of the picture.

The setting changes. These habits don’t.

Bedside care, banking, class projects, and browser games are very different. I still approach each one in roughly the same way.

01

Pay attention

Notice what is changing, what is missing, and what the person in front of me actually needs.

02

Make a plan

Break the problem into steps and keep the important parts visible.

03

Explain it clearly

Use plain language, ask better questions, and make sure everyone understands the next step.

04

Revise without drama

Try it, see what fails, fix it, and keep moving.

Dino Kart Racer cover art featuring dinosaur drivers Playable now

I made a kart racer with dinosaurs. It got a little out of hand.

Dino Kart Racer grew from a browser-game experiment into a prehistoric combat racer with rival AI, power-ups, collisions, sound, and an extremely committed homing trilobite.

  • Part of a 23-experience browser library
  • Most features came from playing it, finding what felt bad, and fixing it

Work is serious. I’m still allowed to have interests.

Games, travel, Japanese, anime, family, and creative projects are not career talking points. They’re simply part of my life.
