I like building things that make someone's day easier. My first app let me choose a folder before taking photos, so my assignment photos stayed organised. I built it with a drag-and-drop tool. Apparently, making a camera app was easier than sorting my photos.

At my first software job, my manager trusted me to automate store setup. I turned hours of manual work into a process customers could complete themselves in minutes. It was fun figuring that one out.

I've learned a lot from colleagues who write clear code, build systems that are easy to extend, and understand the whole application. I enjoy talking tech, debating solutions, and figuring out how things work together. I like people who make me want to get better. Neovim nerds included.

That curiosity goes beyond software. Evolution, how touchscreens work, how economies work. I'll happily explore any of them. My browser tabs don't stick to one subject either.

I enjoy stubborn bugs and finding simpler ways to build things. I can also spend far too long choosing a variable name. I'm learning when to stop polishing and ship. The variable usually survives.
