About Me
I build things that force me to understand what is actually happening under the hood. Right now, that means Go backends, networking projects, private communication tools, embedded systems, and robotics experiments that make me deal with real constraints instead of hiding behind shiny abstractions. I like starting close to the metal, asking annoying questions, breaking things, fixing them, and then rewriting them cleaner.
I care about software that works, systems I can reason about, and code that does not collapse the moment reality touches it. I learn constantly by building. Slowly, stubbornly, and usually from scratch.
Outside of coding, I’m into hiking, biking, archery and animal photography. I appreciate the outdoors as long as there are animals lurking around. I also enjoy reading non-fiction books, mostly by Carl Jung, on psychology and human behavior. It's fascinating to try and understand how people think and make decisions.
