About Me
I'm a software engineer by profession and a tinkerer by curiosity. By day, I build backend systems with Java, but outside work I'm usually experimenting with new technologies, building side projects, or automating everyday tasks.
I like taking things apart, understanding how they're built, and making them better. That curiosity has led me to build Android and Wear OS apps, create Home Assistant integrations, improve open-source projects, develop Tasker automations, and occasionally reverse engineer APIs when there's no better way.
Ultimately, I'm passionate about local-first automation, open-source software, and building tools that simplify everyday life while respecting user privacy.
This site is where I document the things I build, the things I learn, and the occasional rabbit hole that started with a simple question: "How does this work?"

Why This Website Exists
Too many weekend projects vanish into a folder of forgotten scripts once they're "finished." I created this site to document the process, not just the final outcome.
