I love to produce beats/music in FL Studio​​
I have always had a deep love for music since a young age. Regardless of the genre, I have always been able to value the art and beauty in the music itself, from R&B to EDM to Rock I love it all. I try to bring this passion into my work, by listening to simply 15 minutes of positive music daily. It enables new ideas and thoughts to flow naturally through me.
I was fortunate enough to visit my home country once in 2019. It was a magical experience, akin to going into a time machine 50 years back. Seeing how people thrived despite the lack of access to tech is what prompted my career choice. In everything I do, I strive to make the experience of executing on a vision as seamless as possible; for all aspiring creatives.

I built my own PC and turned it into a homelab
My first job at age 16 was at McDonalds. I taught myself how to build a computer and saved every penny until I could afford the parts. It was fascinating to see the complexity in hardware that we take for granted. I now am in the process of converting my PC to a homelab, as I have a newfound passion for network security & data sovereignty.​

I play competitive games for fun
Life is all about balance. When feeling burnt out from work, playing a little VALORANT with a few buddies helps me destress. Although I haven't played in awhile, I still got the skills. Check out some clips below :)
