this site isstill beingbuilt. sorry if someof it isn'treachable yet.

A newspaper front page reading THINGS HAPPEN PEOPLE CHANGE, with a photograph of an OpenAI sign and the standfirst 'code became the medium, judgment is more work'.

software is easier to make than ever. libraries are everywhere, models are increasingly accessible and AI can help turn an idea into working code before you've finished your coffee.

what interests me is what comes before and after that moment: choosing the right problem, understanding why a system behaves the way it does and making something that feels considered.

that's part of what drew me towards machine learning. it isn't only about writing the code that makes a model run. A lot of the work happens in the questions around it. you gotta decide what to measure, understanding the data, interpreting failure, figuring out why a prediction happened in the first place and deciding what that prediction should actually mean.

and somewhere along the way, i started caring about another kind of decision too — how an idea is presented once it leaves the codebase. i like making designs and MY portfolio is the best place to go crazy and do what i want. it's about me so i just made things that i like. it doesnt have to make sense to everyone.

two people can be given the same tools and make completely different things. there's always multiple ways to interpret a problem, so as independent as i like to be, sometimes the best thing you can do is listen to someone else's ideas. or steal. ethically of course. like how people get inspired by historical building and recreate them to fit modern needs. ethical stealing.

lately i'm less concerned about deciding exactly what i am or what label i want to wear at my next job, but in seeing what i can make. thats why i pursue different types of projects, some of which turn out good, others are left forgotten, but it all teaches me something. exploring different parts of the tech world is far from linear in the end.
