Life & Interests
The things that keep me sane outside of engineering.
Karting
The closest thing to racing without a license.
I hit the local karting track whenever I can. There's something deeply satisfying about finding the perfect braking point and shaving tenths off your lap time. It's engineering intuition applied at 80 km/h.
Cycling
Two wheels, no motor, plenty of suffering.
Road cycling is my way of clearing my head. Long weekend rides through the countryside, chasing KOMs on Strava, and occasionally bonking 60 km from home. The bike is a machine I understand completely — every component, every adjustment matters.
Desk Setup
Where the magic happens (and the cable management never ends).
I spend a lot of time at my desk, so I've put real thought into making it a space I enjoy. Custom keyboard, carefully chosen peripherals, good lighting, clean cable routing. It's a perpetual work in progress.
Sim Racing
Real physics, virtual consequences.
When I can't get to a real track, I race in sim. A decent wheel and hours of practice on Assetto Corsa. It's surprisingly technical — setup tuning, telemetry analysis, racecraft. Basically engineering with a steering wheel.
3D Printing
From CAD to reality in a few hours.
3D printing bridges my digital designs and the physical world. I print everything from robot parts and camera mounts to custom enclosures. Dialing in print settings is its own kind of engineering challenge.
PC Building & Modding
Salvaging E5 CPUs and flashing 2080 Ti BIOSes for fun.
Building and modding PCs is where hardware meets obsession. I've assembled systems from scratch, swapped coolers, upgraded components, and gone deep into the secondhand market — picking up Xeon E5 CPUs and modding a 2080 Ti to 22GB VRAM. If it has a heatsink, I've probably taken it apart.
Video Editing
Cutting footage, not corners.
I edit videos for the robotics team — recruitment films, competition highlights, and behind-the-scenes content. Using Premiere Pro and After Effects to tell the story of what we build.
