I’m a software engineer who’s fascinated by how software behaves as a system — the way components fit together, the failure modes that only show up under load, the small design choices that echo through an entire stack. I’ve never shipped a compiler, but that’s a rabbit hole I very much want to fall into.

This blog is where I think out loud about the things I’m learning — notes I’d send to a slightly-younger version of myself. Expect posts on systems, the math behind machine learning, and the occasional yak-shave into how something under the hood actually works.
