My father is the classic mad scientist: a lab technician with a 3D printer always running and circuit boards scattered everywhere. His masterpiece? A remote-controlled tracked vehicle to carry groceries up to my mother on the fourth floor — no elevator. That's how I grew up: taking things apart, breaking them, and finding solutions to problems others didn't even know they had.

After years in hospitality and real estate — where I learned to handle people and unexpected situations without losing my mind — I decided to go back to that 'making' spirit I had at home. Today I call myself an AI-Assisted Developer. I don't have a standard academic background, but I spend my days in VSCode, Cline and Qodo 'tinkering' (seriously) with Artificial Intelligence.

My goal? To build technical tools that still make human sense. A bit like that tracked vehicle: maybe odd to look at, but incredibly useful.
