Computer engineering student. Systems administrator by vocation.

At 9 I turned on my first computer. A year later, I installed Linux on it.

Since then, I've been fascinated by how things work under the hood. I'm passionate about systems administration, especially on Linux, alongside my love for writing, art, and level design.

I work with Java, Python, C++, SQL, HTML/CSS, and keep expanding my toolbox.

Ever since I installed Ubuntu 10.04 at ten years old, every system I configure is a small act of freedom, and a way to create my little corner in the world. Today, with Arch Linux as solid ground, I keep learning how my computer works on the inside while I tweak and polish my environment. I also experiment with tools that help me improve and optimize my servers.

I like tools to serve their purpose, but also to have a soul. Programming isn’t just about making something work, but making it do so with grace and transparency, like a good video game level, where every detail has importance and meaning.

And meanwhile, Fleet Foxes plays in the background, and black tea steams next to the keyboard. Because in the end, everything flows better when the pulse is steady.
