Every hobby can help develop skills i guess. Repairing aircraft has been a rewarding hobby for me, allowing me to develop a wide range of skills. Through hands-on experience, I've gained the expertise to address complex mechanical issues, including fixing Propeller imbalance, which has deepened my understanding of aerodynamics and enhanced my problem-solving abilities.

I've long used python for research and analysis in a work setting, but a couple years ago I got curious about building web apps. Started learning Flask as a hobby. First it was a simple personal landing page, but fast forward to today and I've got a handful of little side projects going, two of which launched here!
