About me.

I like hacking through software engineering problems and building solutions that improve software reliability. Over time, I've found myself equally drawn to breaking down complex technical concepts into easier, more accessible content, whether through blogs, videos, or talks.

I've worked in Developer Advocacy, which sits right at the intersection of the two things I love most: tech and education. What truly excites me is bringing people along on the journey from ideation to execution.

I'm always looking for ways to improve communication and foster understanding across teams and roles.

I come from a non-CS background, and in many ways, open source has been my university. The people I've met: mentors, collaborators, friends, have taught me so much, and I continue to be inspired by their support and generosity. I always say that the community is the best part of tech, and I've never been wrong.

Outside of work, I love traveling, meeting new people, exploring museums, learning about history, art, and culture, and trying local food from every country I visit. I'm also into making digital illustrations and zines, cycling to clear my head, and reading about psychology, new tech, and how society is constantly changing.
