Interests

Aside from my studies in computer engineering, and developing skills through projects, courses, and challenges, I spend a lot of time being active. I love going to the gym, playing team sports, and trying out different activities such as bouldering, boxing, and biking just to name a few.

When I am not sweating it out, I enjoy watching thrillers and comedies, spending time with my dog, and learning new skills.
