In my teenage years I had spent a lot of time helping my grandfather, my father or my uncle. They built things with their hands. I didn't know it at the time, but those were the lessons I could only understand 20 years later.

I started building virtual things instead and that became my career after I finished my education. When I rediscovered woodwork again few years after all those craftsmen passed away from my life, I understood that I found something that was missing.

A marking point in my journey with wood was when I moved into a new place a few years ago. I had an empty room and no furniture. So I decided to make it. I made my shelving, my table, my bed.

I realized making things out of wood gives me joy. I liked the feel of wood. I liked how much closer to reality creating a physical object felt than writing code that would only produce something on a screen.

When I start working on a project, it becomes a puzzle. And I get posessed by solving that puzzle. Looking for a balance between usability, esthetics and enduring engineering is something that excites me. The result is an outcome of that challenge.
