At 19 years old, I'm deeply passionate about technology and its potential to solve real-world problems. My journey into programming started when I was curious about how the digital world around me actually worked. What began as simple curiosity has evolved into a genuine love for creating clean, efficient, and meaningful solutions.

I'm particularly drawn to the philosophy of open source software and the collaborative nature of the Linux ecosystem. There's something beautiful about the idea that knowledge should be shared freely, and that the best solutions often come from communities working together toward common goals.

I'm passionate about using technology to serve people and communities. One project I'm particularly proud of is programming the election interface for our local Youth Parliament - creating democratic tools that help young voices be heard. Whether it's building web applications or contributing to open source projects, I always approach development with the mindset of creating positive impact.

Privacy and self-hosting are core values of mine, which is why I run my own infrastructure with 2 Proxmox nodes hosting everything from a private cloud and music service to streaming platforms, Git repositories, search engines, and chat platforms. There's something deeply satisfying about having complete control over your digital life and knowing exactly where your data lives.

When I'm not coding, you'll find me tinkering with my 2-node Proxmox homelab setup, exploring new Linux distributions, or diving deep into documentation to understand how things really work under the hood. I'm always learning, always building, and always looking for the next interesting challenge that respects user privacy and autonomy.

Fun fact: I measure my productivity in uptime, not hours. ⚡
