Crafting Code That Makes a Difference

I'm a — years old Senior Software Engineer based in Budapest, Hungary, with a deep passion for PHP, Laravel, and the art of building elegant developer tools.

As a core contributor to the Tempest PHP Framework and co-founder of Luminarix Labs, I focus on creating tools that enhance developer productivity and simplify complex workflows.

When I'm not writing code, I'm probably exploring new technologies, contributing to open source, or building my network.
