About Me

I enjoy working across engineering and technology, especially where science meets creativity. From scientific imaging to machine learning and computer vision, I like building solutions that are both smart and practical. I often take ideas from concept to a complete product, handling design, development, and manufacturing.

When I am not building, you will find me modeling in 3D, experimenting with electronics, or capturing the night sky through astrophotography😉. Curiosity drives my work, and learning shapes my journey.
