“Give me a lever, a place to stand and well-done investigation, and I will move the earth.” - Archimedes’ semi-cit.

I was born as tireless curious. I’m a proactive guy, used to knowledge sharing and receiving feedbacks (whether positive or negative).

In my spare time I enjoy capturing the beauty around me, and deep dive in the world of personal finance.
