About Me

I am training to be a machinist while pursuing its further integration with technology. I've been working in industry since 2019, starting on a manual mill, squaring brass, bronze and aluminum to prep for CNC engraving. I enjoy being analytical and implementing ideas.

I started my computer science journey in winter of 2023/2024. I've followed computer hardware news for the longest time, and when I wanted to further understand the logic behind g-code, I chose the lowest level language I could find: C.
