Duong Nguyen

I'm a web developer based in the Boise, Idaho area and the founder of Light Astra, where I build websites and web applications for individuals, small businesses, companies and brands — locally and remotely.

My path into web development runs through IT support and cybersecurity. I've spent years helping people solve technical problems: troubleshooting computers and networks, supporting Windows and Linux systems, and working directly with customers. That experience shapes how I work with clients — clear communication and practical solutions.

I hold a Bachelor of Applied Science in Cyber Operations Essentials from Boise State University, along with CompTIA A+ and Security+ certifications. So when I build a website, I'm thinking about more than how it looks: how it's configured, how it's maintained, and how to reduce common risks.

Beyond websites, I work with Linux servers, automation tools like n8n, API integrations, and local, privacy-focused AI — skills that help me build sites that are practical to run, not just good to look at.
