Who I Am
Beyond the technical skills and achievements, here's what really drives me
Here’s what really drives me: I really like puzzles. My papa always said he enjoyed working on things that felt like one, because puzzles are fun to solve and, if you’re lucky, you get a new one every day that keeps things interesting. I think that rubbed off on me. I’m naturally curious, a little restless, and always chasing that feeling of figuring something out for the first time.
I love trying new things, good coffee, traveling without a strict plan, and music that somehow makes a moment feel bigger than it is. I get bored when things feel repetitive, and excited when something surprises me. Whether it’s a problem, a place, or an idea, I like exploring it slowly and seeing where it leads. I don’t need everything mapped out. I just like learning, wandering, and finding the next puzzle along the way.

Little things that make me, me
Coffee Ritual
I start every coding session with a perfectly brewed pour-over coffee. The brewing process helps me think through complex problems.
Playlist Obsession
I have 47 different Spotify playlists, each curated for specific types of work - from 'Deep Focus AI Research' to 'Debugging at 3 AM'.
First Program
My first program was a simple calculator that helped my mom with her small business accounting. It sparked my love for practical tech solutions.
Travel Goal
I'm on a mission to visit all 7 continents before I turn 25. Currently at 4 continents and counting!
