🤓 Interests

🤖

Home Automation

I spend my spare time on home automation projects around the house. Home Assistant is my weapon of choice and if it didn't require the use of a soldering iron, it was almost too easy!

3D Printing

3D printing and modeling have been part of my toolbox for many years! I find it extremely satisfying to solve real-life problems using this technology.

👨‍💻

Web Development

To me, web development is as much a hobby as it is my job. When I'm done working for the day, I often spend the evening building personal web projects to explore new technologies.
