Interests

I love learning new things, admittedly I sometimes go too deep down the reddit rabbit hole. I am a Lego connoisseur, Formula 1 aficionado, and in my spare time I enjoy watching movies and television shows.

I am always looking for ways to enhance my work and side projects. I achieve that by either reinventing workflows to make them simpler, or by looking into new technologies to apply to my day-to-day life.

When forced outdoors, I will relocate to another indoor facility to play squash.
