I started programming in the '80s on a ZX Spectrum, and it's been with me ever since — through BASIC, Assembly, C, Perl and Python. After a degree in Information Engineering, I spent over 20 years as an IP network engineer, along the way building a tool to automate network auditing and configuration. Today I work in a team developing AI agents to support network operations. I'm also a semi-professional musician: I play piano and keyboards, and I compose.
