I am passionate about computer science and enjoy the intricacies of programming, from solving complex problems to automating various tasks and processes. My interests extend as well into the expansive realm of big data, with a focus on analytics and machine learning, particularly in their applications across domains like financial data pipelines, sports analytics, and large-scale content classification.

A foundation in graphic design keeps me honest about presentation and human-computer interaction. Interfaces, dashboards, and UX are not afterthoughts; they mediate every insight the code uncovers. I design them to be immediately legible, aesthetically coherent, and—crucially—pleasing enough that I am proud to rely on them myself. For me, bridging the usual gap between developer convenience and audience clairity is part of the deliverable.

Linux and the broader FOSS ecosystem provide the tool-chain. The transparent architecture of Linux and extensive customizability make it the ideal operating system for power users focused on precise control and efficient workflows. These experiences with linux have much refined my approach to technology—driving me to continously learn, expand my knowledge, and share my insights in the process. This environment also anchors my commitment to privacy and open standards; from that perspective I treat privacy not as paranoia but as courtesy—refusing to leak what was never offered. Protecting user data is not optional infrastructure but a professional obligation.

Curiosity pushes me outward: each unfamiliar tool, language, or discipline extends the vocabulary with which I can interrogate the world and explain it to others; promoting a purposeful, well-rounded perspective. Learning, teaching, and building are, for me, facets of the same discipline.
