About

Me ^-^

I'm a curious problem-solver who loves diving head-first into puzzles, whether it’s coding elegant solutions, designing scalable distributed systems, or unraveling the intricacies of fund accounting and asset management. I get a kick out of assembling high-performing teams, exploring offbeat ideas, and blending creativity with tech-savvy grit to tackle tricky challenges.
