Now
I believe the best way to learn is to fully digest the fundamentals. I'm focused on continually diving deeper and improving my skills through practice. I'm interested in exploring other web frameworks, systems design, and AI/ML.
If I'm not coding, I'll be consuming digital media, journaling, and cooking. I like anime, dramas, novels, and I've been really into Lord of the Mysteries recently. I'm planning on bringing some of my writing online and make my mark in the digital space.
