About
Thank you for dropping by. I am a creator in a world of consumers. An observer, free thinker, and a curious soul. I love to learn and believe that knowledge should be freely available & accessible to all, and only through diversity can we truly build a better world. During leisure, I enjoy listening to the sound of water, attending concerts (I am a fan of Electronic Music) and art events. Conversations about time travel, history, or space excite me. In a parallel universe, you might find me either as an archaeologist, sound engineer, travel guide, museum curator, or perhaps running a beachside burger joint, playing rock and roll all day. Yet, in the present reality, I am a product manager and I find joy in building consumer apps for a living. Oddly enough, I do get emotional over fonts and colours as I have a soft spot for clean and simple design.
