Ride.Shoot.Play.Build.

This is where I share my passions: motorcycles, basketball, video games and code for fun. I’m not the best at any of them. I just love doing them.

OFFthe clock

Moto

On two wheels

I ride carefully, but with passion. A ride is not about getting somewhere fast. It is about the time on the bike: the sound of the engine, the wind, the road opening up in front of me.

I keep a safe pace, watch the road and the people around me, and take the long way home whenever I can. That is where the fun is.

I enjoy the road, not the speed.

Basket

On the court

Pickup games on whatever court is free. Fast decisions and no time to overthink, which is the opposite of a long day at a desk.

Not the best shooter on the court. I just love the game.

Games

Press start

When it is too late for the court, I play it on a screen instead. Basketball games most of all: same love of the game, and nobody sees my missed shots.

And open worlds like GTA, where I forget the mission and just drive around the city, which is basically a ride without the helmet.

I lose a lot. I press continue anyway.

Main: Basketball games
Side quest: Open worlds, GTA

Code

Code, for fun

Code is also my job, and that side lives on my portfolio. This is the other kind: small programs written on a Sunday, for no reason except to see how something works.

No contest, no deadline. Just curiosity.
