πŸ§‘β€πŸ’» About Me

2nd Year Computer Engineering student from the Philippines, driven by hunger and a will to do the work and learn. I am very obsessed with tech and infrastructure and that's what keeps me to do what I do.

Currently my infrastructure repo private for privacy and security reasons

🎯 Current Goal: Designing and Building Distributed Systems and Learning and applying System Design Concepts
