About Me

I have always been more interested in questions than answers.

Code allows me to build, while literature teaches me why. Between the two, I spend my time exploring human nature, loneliness, ambition, hope, and the strange beauty found in ordinary lives.

This space is not only a portfolio of projects, but also a record of the books and ideas that shaped the person behind them.

Words That Stayed

"My God, a whole moment of happiness! Is that too little for the whole of a man's life?"

Fyodor Dostoevsky, White Nights

"Pain and suffering are always inevitable for a large intelligence and a deep heart."

Fyodor Dostoevsky

"I am a dreamer; I have so little real life."

Fyodor Dostoevsky, White Nights

My tears long for her ocean,
yet knowing it is no mere sea but a goddess's sacred water,
they dare not fall.
For how can something so mortal
claim a place in the divine?
