About
TL;DR: I'm just a person in their 30's, loved their dog, loves coding, called Perma, Married, work as a Back-end developer.
Within this big world, home to roughly 8 billion individuals, I'm just an average person, adding to humanity's mosaic. I studied architecture and the Congnitive Sciences during my 20's. Throughout, my fascination with computing never faded. This passion directed me to find my true enjoyment in being a developer.

Additionally, I also engage in system programming, working with low-level components and infrastructure to ensure optimal performance and reliability.
Tech-wise
Since the tender age of 5, my eyes have been fixated on computer screens, even during those moments when they lay dormant. The hours I’ve devoted to sitting behind desktop computers far exceed the time I’ve dedicated to restful slumber. Throughout my life, I proudly embrace the label of a bona fide textbook nerd, finding immense joy and fascination in the pages of educational literature. In fact, my favorite genre of books happens to be none other than textbooks themselves.
Advocacy
For over 15 years, I have actively engaged in the realm of free software advocacy, passionately advocating for the principles of openness and accessibility. It’s safe to say that I find myself firmly planted in the far-left corner of political stereotypes, unapologetically embracing a feminist perspective, advocating for veganism and animal rights, and actively participating in environmentalism. While there are other aspects of my beliefs, such as my alignment with rationalism, utilitarianism, and consciousness idealism, I won’t delve into those topics and burden you with excessive details.
