Coding

I build libraries, full-stack web applications, apps, and automation scripts. From tinkering with microcontrollers in Python to architecting scalable software solutions, I love turning complex logic into clean, functional code. My favorite languages are
Python
and
Swift

Music

I enjoy both playing and composing music. Whether behind an instrument or in front of MuseScore Studio, crafting melodies and exploring harmonies is one of my favorite creative outlets. I sing and play Trumpet (B♭, of course), Drums (think garage rock, not concert hall), and a little bit of Piano.

Reading

I love stories about clever people uncovering hidden worlds. My favorite books combine mystery, adventure, and discovery, with protagonists who solve puzzles, uncover secrets, and slowly realize there's a much bigger world than they first imagined. Some of my favorite series include The Mysterious Benedict Society, The Great Brain, His Dark Materials, Percy Jackson, Harry Potter, Wings of Fire, and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

Video Games

I enjoy games that reward creativity, exploration, and skill. Some of my favorites include Terraria, Minecraft, Fortnite, SpiderHeck, Alto's Adventure (Spirit of the Mountain), and Super Smash Bros. (Ultimate). Whether I'm building, exploring, battling, or just having fun with friends, I enjoy games that are imaginative, replayable, and full of interesting mechanics.

Other

I also enjoy creating animations, editing media, and exploring other creative outlets. Whether it's rendering a 3D scene, editing a video, or experimenting with new tools, I love learning and creating in different mediums.

3D

I also enjoy rendering animations and creating 3D models. I use Blender, Tinkercad, and FreeCAD.

Media Editing

I like to edit videos and pictures. I use Pixelmator Pro and Final Cut Pro.
