My biography resembles a labyrinth. It all began when Fermat’s last theorem caught my attention, leaving me amazed and pondering the thought processes of mathematicians. This fascination drove me to pursue mathematics at university, where I developed a passion for logic.

Following this, I delved into the depths of human behavior, culminating in the successful submission of my PhD thesis in this field. As the era of artificial intelligence and vastly increasing computing power emerged, I transitioned into roles as a Data Scientist and subsequently a Software Engineer.

However, amidst the pandemic, I discovered a whole new world: the Crypto World. Since then, I have been unable to let go of this topic, as it encompasses human psychology, history, monetary systems, technology, and philosophy. I was absolutely mind-blown and am eager to share this fascination with the world.
