For as long as I can remember, I’ve been creating, experimenting, and looking for challenges to solve. I am driven by an intense passion for creative pursuits, technology, art, and science.
My unrelenting thirst for knowledge eventually led me to pursue a career in web development, where the constant challenge of finding innovative and creative solutions—combined with creating visually appealing products—immediately interested me.
When I’m not working on challenging, detail-oriented projects, I’m learning how to solve the problems I haven’t encountered yet.
