Interests

I’m endlessly curious about technology, science, and science fiction, always chasing the thrill of learning something new. I thrive on exploring fresh ideas, experimenting with cutting-edge innovations, and staying ahead of the curve in tech. I’m equally drawn to the big questions—digital ethics, data sovereignty, and the future of privacy.

In my downtime, I love tinkering with my self-hosted server, experimenting with new software stacks, and finding creative ways to automate life’s little annoyances. My current side project? Building an automated mini-greenhouse for my herbs and veggies
