I build clean, fast interfaces and small, elegant systems — and the occasional browser game. Olympiad-trained problem solver who likes turning hard ideas into things people can actually use.
Profile
I’m a computer engineering student who came up through competitive mathematics — gold at the Ethiopian Math Olympiad, silver at the East African, and top 0.01% nationally. That’s where I learned to sit with a hard problem until it gives.
These days I mostly build for the web: production sites like Serk and Exceed, tools like Personayzer, and games because they’re fun. I care about clarity, speed, and interfaces that get out of the way.
Outside the editor I run a 6k-member math community, read too much epic fantasy and LitRPG, and lose at table tennis with enthusiasm.
