I'm a software enginer with a strong academic and applied background in software design and development. I've worked across different languages, platforms and technology stacks, but my approach tends to stay the same: I care about good system design, clear abstractions, performance, testing and actually delivering useful software on time. I like working closely with the people who use or depend on what I'm building, understanding the problem behind the requirements and making technical decisions with that end goal in mind. Test-driven development and maintainability are important parts of how I work, whether I'm building a real-time system, a user application, or an AI-based system.

My main technical interest are C++ and artificial intelligence. I enjoy modern C++ its combination of expressive software design and low-level control when it's needed. Currently, my main hobby project is building my own graphics engine, which gives me plenty of room to explore both.

My interest in AI comes from first-hand experience with the gap between research and production software. A major focus on my work has been bridging that gap and turning research ideas and simple scripts into reliable, production-ready solutions. My academic background in AI and professional work have taken me through machine learning, computer vision, semantic reasoning, RAG, and agentic workflows, with the same emphasis on architecture, evaluation, performance, testing, and delivery that I bring to the rest of my software work.
