I have a habit.
I turn every random idea into a project.
An AI tool
A research paper
A machine
A website
A new challenge
Some ideas work.
Some evolve into something completely different.
And some simply teach me what to try next.
But this portfolio is not only about my projects. It is also about my life, my personality, and the way I grow through different experiences.

Sports are an important part of my life. They keep me active and help me reset.
They teach me to stay calm, be brave, keep going, and keep improving.
And along the way, I build friendships too.

I really like this quote by Helen Keller:
“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.”
Family and community mean a lot to me. I care about the people around me and want to be someone they can trust and count on. To me, real connection is simple: being there for each other when it matters.

Photography helps me notice what is already there. Sketching lets me rebuild it in my own way. One captures the moment; the other changes it. Together, they give me a way to slow down, observe details, and turn ordinary scenes into something that feels more personal.
