QUOTE
"It's a terrible day for rain."

I'm a passionate software engineer with a deep love for discussing technology-focused projects — whether that's custom keyboard-PC-laptop builds, hardware creation, or software development.

When I'm not coding or involved with tech, you'll find me building Gundam models, creating and/or consuming media, and embracing the people closest to me. My passion doesn't leave my career, it stays with me throughout whatever I want to pursue. This goes for how I want to branch out to different avenues of hobbies and opportunities, most recently those being photography, cosplay, and art. I want to see more, experience more, and do more.

Contact me via Instagram, email, or LinkedIn.
