// my academic and professional journey

By day I'm a C++ software developer at Teledyne SevenCs in Hamburg. In my free time I'm building Samosa AI: open-source, privacy-first AI solutions for learning, productivity and health, built local-first so your data stays with you. Below is the road that led here.
