About
Hi! I'm a Anglo-Belgian person who lives in Montreal. I like mountains, code, math, engineering projects, bjj, poetry, unorthodox diets & fasting, encountering the strange, and all the other things that make life worth living. I work on the real-time signal processing for the ALBATROS radio telescope. My journey to this point has been... akin to a high temperature brownian walk. I'm optimistic about the future.
Fun things I made on the internet
