Proof that curiosity
could be a career plan.

I'm a multipotentialite, and no, I never had one true calling. I've always been the person who goes all-in on something new, masters it, then follows the next spark of curiosity somewhere completely different. I don't see that as a flaw. It's how I'm wired, and it's become my biggest asset.

The upside? I pick up new skills fast, connect dots others don't see, and bring ideas from completely different worlds together. And in tech, that's exactly what's missing. The best products aren't built by people who only know how to build them — they're built by people who also understand the user, the story, and the human on the other side of the screen.


"The ability to adapt isn't a nice-to-have. It's the actual job."

It started with aerospace engineering. While studying for my bachelor's degree, I became fascinated by the idea of making complex topics accessible — so I wrote a book about it. Published in 2015, it was a comprehensive exploration of aerodynamics, and my first real attempt at teaching and inspiring the next generation.

Between 2019 and 2024, I went fully independent — working as a videomaker, motion designer, and project manager. The multi-hat life suited me perfectly. As a project manager, I led two teams on innovative projects and found that my favorite part was watching people grow.

During this time I also co-hosted, produced, and edited Crunchy Bytes, a podcast where we dug into innovation, business, and personal growth. It was my first taste of building a brand and an audience around ideas, and I got hooked.

In January 2023, I began teaching myself how to code. I started with CS fundamentals and low-level languages like C before delving into frontend development. Exactly one year later, I secured a job as a software developer, achieving my goal. Currently, I'm working as a fullstack developer.

Now I'm documenting the whole journey through a podcast called Wannabe Dev, aiming to inspire others to switch careers and land tech jobs. Because if I could do it, starting from zero at 30-something, so can you.

During the pandemic, I channelled my energy into something completely different: launching a handmade leather goods business that ended up shipping worldwide. The same curiosity had already pulled me into blockchain, Web 3.0, and the token economy back in 2017 — long before it was mainstream — and I've been following that space ever since.

When I'm not writing code or recording podcasts, you'll find me reading, running marathons, or bikepacking through places with no wifi.
