The Foundation

My passion for computers started in 2006 with exploring the Internet, evolved into hardware maintenance in 2011, and naturally expanded into networking - setting up game servers and troubleshooting OS-level issues.

The Current Lab

Today, I'm a Linux-centric developer who loves the synergy between the browser and the backend. While my primary focus is creating sleek frontend experiences, my background means I'm comfortable managing a home lab, deploying self-hosted services, and understanding the networking that connects them.

The Craft

This background in troubleshooting and optimization carries over into my web development, where I strive to write clean, efficient, and highly performant code. I also have a lifelong love for languages and translation, which makes me deeply passionate about building accessible, cross-cultural web experiences.
