## Summary

- I love to code, solve problems, and build. I'm a TypeScript-React enjoyer and a stan for the new school ecosystem around it.
- More of a luthier than a lumberjack when it comes to coding, but never afraid to get my hands dirty. I do believe agentic coding is the present, but the deep human understanding of a problem space and the world surrounding it is irreplaceable.
- A little bit addicted to coffee and online chess. Started learning math and comp-sci again. I want to know how the sausage is made, from first principles.
