Welcome! I am a software developer and systems engineer focused on building functional connections between digital code and physical hardware. My work ranges from architecting 2D game mechanics in Python to engineering embedded microcontroller frameworks. One of my primary initiatives is HelioTrack, an open-source, Arduino-based solar tracking system designed to optimize renewable energy collection using analog sensor arrays and motor driver logic.

Beyond individual development, I believe in transparent engineering. I use my platforms to completely open-source my codebases, publish physical circuit pin mappings, and document the real-world troubleshooting cycles that go into building successful technical systems.

Developing hardware-software integrated systems requires continuous testing, physical components (like microcontrollers, sensors, and prototype board modules), and robust hosting for documentation. Liberapay provides a way for the global maker and developer community to support this work directly through sustainable, weekly or monthly micro-donations.

Your funding goes directly toward:

Purchasing electronic components and prototyping materials for open-source hardware builds.

Maintaining and expanding high-quality, open-access code repositories and wiring schematics.

Supporting the creation of free technical learning materials for young engineers and self-taught developers.

Thank you for supporting open-source innovation and helping me build the next generation of accessible technology!
