I learned to code the hard way — by breaking things, reading real source code and shipping in public. No copy-paste tutorials.
My favorite work is taking a genuinely hard problem and turning it into something fast and reliable — then wrapping it in an interface that feels effortless. Performance, resilience and craft matter to me on every single screen.
I work across the whole stack — polished React front-ends, real-time back-ends and end-to-end encrypted apps — and I sweat the details most people skip: speed, accessibility, and design that actually has a point of view.

02 / Capabilities
What I actually
know how to do.
Not a wall of logos. Three areas I've shipped real, running software in — tap any skill to read the story behind it.
“Turning ideas into interfaces people actually enjoy using.”
This very site is Next.js (App Router, static export). I obsess over perceived performance — compositor-only animations, a single IntersectionObserver for reveals, passive listeners — so scrolling never janks, even on a mid-range phone.

Strongly-typed everything. I lean on generics, discriminated unions and strict configs to keep large codebases honest — and to make refactors fearless instead of frightening.

I design as I build: type scales, custom theming, multi-language systems and micro-interactions. A product should have a point of view — not be another templated grid of cards.

03 / Hardware
Where software
meets solder.
Software is home, but I've been getting my hands dirty with electronics and PCB design — the board on the right is live: drag it around.
Still early — I know the fundamentals and enjoy prototyping. Not a claim to be an EE, just genuine, hands-on curiosity.
Schematic & Circuit Basics0%
Reading and drawing schematics — resistors, capacitors, diodes, transistors, voltage dividers and Ohm's law in practice.
PCB Design (KiCad)0%
Turning a schematic into a routed two-layer board in KiCad — footprints, nets, ground pours and a clean silkscreen.
Microcontrollers (Arduino / ESP32)0%
Where my coding pays off — GPIO, PWM, I²C/SPI sensors, and pushing sensor data to the web over Wi-Fi.
Soldering & Prototyping0%
Breadboarding, through-hole and basic SMD soldering, plus a multimeter and logic probe to actually debug the thing.

05 / Journey
The road so far
2022
First commits
Started building open-source and personal projects — learning systems, the web platform and Linux entirely by shipping, not by following tutorials.
2023
Full-stack foundations
Went deep on TypeScript and React, and shipped real products end to end — from data model to polished, responsive UI.
2024
Real-time & systems
Focused on real-time experiences — WebRTC, streaming data and WebSockets — and on performance work that keeps larger apps fast.
2025 – 2026
Products & cryptography
Delivering polished products end to end — encrypted messengers, design systems and collaborative tools — with security and craft baked in from the start.
07 / Shell
Prefer a
terminal?
A real, interactive shell. It boots on its own — then it's yours.
