Software Engineer
I’m a software engineer with a passion for:
- Solving challenging technical problems
- Building and automating solutions
- Sharing knowledge and results
- Living a balanced life
Beyond Code
When I’m not programming, you might find me:
- Gaming and exploring virtual worlds
- Tinkering with hardware and DIY projects
- Diving deep into whatever has caught my curiosity
- Taking photos and exploring new places
The Journey
My fascination with technology started early. As a kid, I attempted to build a computer from spare parts in my mother’s tech graveyard. While that first build never powered on, it taught me that computers weren’t magical black boxes - they were systems that could be understood and mastered.
This curiosity led me through various tech adventures:
- Discovering how to reinstall operating systems
- Learning about Android rooting and customization
- Building small utilities for family and friends
- Eventually finding my way to programming
Professional Path
My career began in freelancing and contract work. While this path taught me valuable lessons about building real solutions for real people, it came with its challenges. I worked with teams of all sizes, on diverse projects, and developed a broad technical skillset.
Today, I focus on:
- Frontend development with React, TypeScript, and modern web technologies
- Backend systems in Node.js and Go
- Database design with SQLite and Postgres
- DevOps practices using Docker and GitHub Actions
