Life is an on-going cycle between exploring, experimenting, and succeeding/failing. It all starts the moment we are born. We try and we fail, but we never stop. Some things might stick easier and others will fade away over time. Be curious and keep iterating, exploring, and experimenting. As kids, we explore the intersection between lots … Continue reading Explore and experiment
I recently got promoted to being a Senior Engineer. Yes, it’s a big deal. It’s something to celebrate for and be immensely proud of. Actually, now that I think about it retrospectively, it’s a HUGE deal. It’s been a wild ride so far – one that started a few years ago amid uncertainty.

Some of the most exciting people we meet are the ones we unexpectedly meet. On a night out with friends after feasting tahini and arepas, then feeling too full to do anything, we headed out to the city to meet up with some friends. We went out with no real purpose other than having a … Continue reading She was full of energy
