[001] Background
________________________________________________________________________________

I was born in Minneapolis, raised through my formative years in Brazil, and my
studies eventually brought me to Germany. Today I live in New York, working at
the systems layer of the stack.

I've always been curious — since my first programming class I wanted to know how
programs and the machines that run them actually work. That pulled me across
many layers of computing abstraction: digital electronics and FPGAs, operating
systems and Linux, computer networking, machine learning, and the
software-engineering tooling that ties them together.

Beyond computer science my interests run from language and linguistics to
comedy, rap, and martial arts. I've been a huge fan of stand-up comedy since I
first saw it as a kid.
