Building open source tools and exploring the intersection of code, music, and knowledge.
I create developer tools (NGINX modules, VSCode extensions), explore music technology with Spotify's API, build mapping systems with OpenStreetMap, and write about infrastructure, frameworks, and creative technical solutions. Currently focused on Rust async/await, personal knowledge management, and making technology more accessible.
Currently exploring:
What I'm Into
From high-performance infrastructure to music analysis, I love exploring the creative and technical possibilities at the intersection of different domains.
