Philosophy

When I start a project - I start with the most important question - “why?”. I’m an engineer but contrary to my instinctive nature of immediately taking a deep dive in the trenches of technicalities, I like to see the bigger picture. I’m motivated by the bigger picture. I’m driven by the bigger picture. Meaning is what I like to find first and then the work follows. Often times this is not the case - I usually find meaning as I go - but I still strive for the former.

After completing numerous arduous, challenging, and equally rewarding projects, I’ve come to learn that persistence is the antidote to the difficulty of any problem - with time, even the toughest problems disintegrate into small easily-solvable chunks. This is my approach to difficult problems - intelligent, persistent, and focused effort.

For me, engineering doesn’t stop with, well, engineering. A quality project is incomplete without a simple, digestible, and elegant design document - a manuscript for any reader to understand the ideas, replicate them and eventually build upon them. A design document lacking a good engineering solution is fluff. A good engineering solution without a beautiful design document is useless.

I firmly believe in these core values and I make sure I employ them in every project I do -> take me to projects.
