about me / allegedly an adult

More than a CV.

I have always liked the place where machines, people, pressure, systems, curiosity, and fatherhood meet. It is louder than it sounds.

Tech was there early.

My love for informatics started long before work titles and project tools. In high school I found myself pulled toward robotics, problem-solving, and the strange satisfaction of making a system do exactly what it should.

That same instinct is still there: break a thing down, find the pattern, build the process, test it under pressure, then make it easier for the next person to use.

In short: I like debugging. Computers were just the polite version before life added extra users.

Work shaped the discipline.

More than 14 years as a professional skipper taught me safety, focus, endurance, customer care, and the kind of calm that only comes from taking real responsibility.

Project management and operations added a different layer: documentation, stakeholder communication, team rhythm, UX thinking, and tools like Notion, ClickUp, and Confluence.

Being a father added the practical masterclass: patience, negotiation, logistics, sleep optimization, and answering impossible questions before coffee.
