About Me

πŸ’‘

Coding Enthusiast

I love turning ideas into code. Something that used to be just "work" for me is now a passion I pursue in many aspects of my life!

πŸ“Š

Math and Analytics

With 2 decades of career experience in mathematical modeling and risk analysis, I've contributed in the banking, fintech and energy sectors by helping to solve some of their tricky problems. Not magic, just some creativity and logic powered by a passion for problem-solving and coding - ok maybe a bit of magic...

πŸ‘₯

Giving back to the community

I like to create educational toys and share my knowledge with young people, hoping to help inspire the next generation of innovators. Making knowledge accessible in fun ways is my thing!

Personal Projects

Whether it's a custom optimization tool, machine learning, econometric, risk or derivative pricing model, visualization tools for math concepts, or a quirky calculator that solves odd problems β€” I'm always tinkering with something that combines logic, beauty (at least from my perspective), and utility. My repo is my sketchpad.

🎢

Electronic Music & Sound Design

I produce and mix tracks across genres like drum & bass, lo-fi hip-hop, glitchy house, and trip-hop β€” blending samples, synths, and grooves into sonic stories. Whether I'm building atmospheric intros, slicing breaks, or layering deep bass lines, my studio time is where code meets rhythm. I also used to DJ for fun and shared some of my creations on YouTube, although my stuff isn't at all for the mainstream listener, nor are they that good: have a listen if you wish 🎧.

🧠

Mindset

I believe that coding isn't just about instructions for machines β€” it's about shaping ideas into reality. Every line is a chance to explore, teach, and make something meaningful.

Creativity doesn’t always click on the first try β€” but I thrive in that iterative space where logic meets curiosity. Whether I'm developing a quantitative tool, composing electronic soundscapes, generating computer art, or mentoring young minds with math β€” it's all part of the same journey: solving problems in inspiring ways.

My hobbies span across developing personal quantitative tools, electronic music development, computer art and mathematical write-ups for the benefit of young people, as well as a bit of cooking.

LET'S COLLAB! I'm always open to new projects, fun conversations and coding collaborations.
