About Me
I do a lot of self-learning. I’m online educated. I’m a tinkerer. I’m a builder. If I want to figure out how to do something, I build it!
I’m Generally a curious person - always seeking to learn new things and meet intellectual people. My purpose is self improvement. I found that I’m the happiest when I can learn new things and then apply them in practice or teach them to others. In my limited free time, I am learning more about coding, IoT and A.I.
