About
I enjoy the challenge of solving problems and learn new things. My keen eye for quality and attention to detail ensures excellence in my work. While I hold strong opinions, I show absolute zero resistance to change them based on new evidence. As a fervent advocate of free and open-source software, I actively contribute to it whenever the opportunity arises. I enjoy working with Python and Linux but I don't use this as an excuse for not using other technologies.
