I'm a full-stack developer deeply invested in Linux, systems programming, security, and minimalist software design. I craft tools, platforms, and digital systems that are elegant, fast, and secure.
I value clean architecture, deep system control, and sharp, focused development. My setup is built for control and clarity—Neovim, Alacritty, and Arch Linux. Whether reverse-engineering, packet sniffing, or writing RESTful APIs, I chase the edges of performance and precision. I might eventually switch to Void Linux to escape the distro race, though Arch has served me well.
I can work with pretty much anything other than PHP :) I'm quite good with Next.js, trying to master Rust, and keeping an eye on AI/ML.
Most of these started with a question, a bug, or just boredom. Some ended well. Others... taught me what *not* to do. All useful.
I build to learn, not to ship. Clean architecture happens eventually—after the mess. Sometimes I redo the same thing five times, mostly out of spite.
It’s less “portfolio,” more “lab notebook with commit history.” Expect useful tools, half-finished ideas, and the occasional cursed solution that worked anyway.
These are mostly notes to self that I’ve cleaned up just enough to publish. Topics range from code and systems to whatever broke my setup that week.
You’ll find technical rants, quiet obsessions, and the occasional deep dive that spiraled way too far. If you like edge cases and diagrams, you’re in good company.
