Interests
My hobbies include cycling, cooking and watching F.R.I.E.N.D.S, and you might sometimes find me tinkering with microcontroller boards.
When forced indoors, I follow a number of sci-fi and fantasy genre movies and television shows, I am an aspiring chef, and I spend a large amount of my free time exploring the latest technology advancements in the machine learning world.
