About Me
I'm a student who fell for backend development the way some people fall for a good puzzle box — the mechanism matters more than the paint. I like walking into problems I don't fully understand yet and building my way to the other side, usually with a terminal open and too many tabs on Stack Overflow.
Most of what I build starts as "can I make this thing talk to that thing?" — a Discord bot, a payment flow, a car that listens to Bluetooth, an AI that replies back. Different dimension, same instinct: poke around, break it, understand why, rebuild it better.
