Turning Coffee into Backend Code & Machine Learning Models

About Me

A software engineer with a passion for problem solving and all things tech. When I'm not busy coding, you'll often find me ⛷️ hiking through forests, or exploring the great outdoors. Let's climb mountains and build dreams together!

I also have a blog that I update once in a while – or whenever inspiration strikes. Feel free to check it out my very occasionally updated blog.
