ASTROPHYSICS FOCUS
Combining computational theory with physical reality — designing software that can simulate, calculate, and help decode celestial mechanics and cosmic phenomena.
INTERESTS
OPERATING SYSTEMS
Arch Linux (btw) — a customizable, bare-metal environment for learning, breaking, fixing, and understanding every component of modern computing.
CELESTIAL MECHANICS
Fascinated by n-body simulations, orbital dynamics, and the mathematics behind galactic motion. I thoroughly enjoy applying code to visualize gravitational interactions and theoretical models of stellar evolution.
SIMULATION & MODELING
Exploring how algorithms translate physical laws into systems of motion. From finite time steps to chaotic attractors - if it moves in space, I want to emulate it.
FICTION AS FUEL
Drawn to science fiction that blends human fragility with vast cosmic architecture — from Asimov’s psychohistory to Clarke’s orbital elevators. Imagination bridges the gap between code and cosmos.
GOALS
COMPUTATIONAL DEPTH
Continue mastering low-level systems — from memory management and kernel design to assembly and microarchitecture — until abstraction becomes second nature.
ASTROPHYSICAL APPLICATION
Bridge computer science and astrophysics through simulation, data analysis, and theoretical modeling. Whether simulating black hole accretion or mapping cosmic microwave background irregularities, I aim to contribute to high-precision science through code.
RESEARCH & CONTRIBUTION
Publish or co-author research that advances either computational methods or astrophysical understanding — ideally both. I want to help illuminate the dark corners of space with machine logic and mathematical rigor.
LIFELONG CURIOSITY
Never stop learning — from abstract algebra to quantum computing, from particle physics to compiler design. My curiosity isn't a phase, it's my trajectory.
