I like understanding systems by building them from scratch: a Raft-replicated key-value store, a streaming engine, a RAG pipeline, a double-entry ledger. Most of what I know, I learned by breaking it first.

A little about me

I'm a computer science student who gets restless just using a tool. I want to know how it works underneath. So I build my own versions: consensus algorithms, streaming sketches, ledgers, recommenders, RAG engines.

At Ticky Tech I get to do this for real, connecting ESP32 devices, AWS and mobile apps so farmers can monitor their fields remotely. On weekends you'll usually find me at a hackathon.
