From combustion engines to fulfillment centers, advertising analytics to website development, I have an unquenchable thirst to understand how things work. This originally led me to a degree in mechanical engineering and working as a product development specialist; over time, however, my passion expanded to the numerous facets of business operations, entrepreneurship, and software engineering.

Today, I'm a fullstack web developer and the owner of BackerClub - a small online business that adds excitement to the crowdfunding industry and helps creators bring their ideas to life.
