Senior Developer & Endurance Athlete

About Me

I'm a senior software developer by day and an endurance athlete by passion. I believe in pushing boundaries — whether it's solving complex technical problems or crossing finish lines that once seemed impossible.

My journey in sports started later than most, but I've learned that age is just a number when you have determination and the right approach.
