I'm a big nerd when it comes to art and entertainment. Needless to say, music stands as one of the main pillars of my life. However, other artistic mediums such as films, books, and especially video games have also played a pivotal role (and continue to do so) in my personal growth journey.
Travelling and nature are also significant interests of mine. In recent years I've really got into climbing, which is quite surprising considering my fear of heights (yet now I climb on a weekly basis)!
Moreover, I'm genuinely fascinated by game development, and 3D design. I'm currently diving deep into Unity and improving my C# skills.
