Welcome to my Twisted Mind Professional Website
Since 2019, I've been building projects and communities that make the web a better, more joyous place. To this end, I've added marketing, business and many other skills to my software engineering background. I also introduced a diverse array of internet dwellers to open source development, and in many cases to programming itself.
You can learn more about the projects I built in the Projects section, and find out we can work together in my Hire Me page.

-
Got gifted my first computer and internet connection. Learned HTML (and Photoshop!) by building a Neon Genesis Evangelion shrine.
-
Repeatedly skipped highschool to hole up in my room and code my "fujoshi shit". Learned to use databases and PHP.
-
After graduating as valedictorian of my Computer Science class, I emigrated from Europe 🇪🇺 to Silicon Valley 🇺🇸 to work for a very large, very famous corporation.
-
"Got radicalized by the Tumblr porn ban". Or, in better words, realized the internet was getting really, really sucky and decided I should help do something about it.
-
After giving up "change from the inside", I abandoned my cozy online anonymity (and paid job) to figure out how to tackle the problem from within the web itself.
-
After taking classes in marketing and business, I launched a series of projects centered around fandom, tech education, and online communities. Still trying to make a living with them.
