Introduction

Who I Am

I'm a teen nerd from Texas, USA who (somehow) ended up in the weird and wonderful world of personal websites. Can't give out too much personal info for obvious reasons but I can tell you about my top interests:

design

I have gotten interested in design ever since I started to mess around with Google Slides’ templates. During the start of 2021, with people hating corporate/flat design, I decided to start designing in a “skeuomorphic” style. I initially started with Pixlr, and later switched to Figma since Pixlr was limited in its functionality. Now, I am considering being a web designer or a similar field.

flowers/nature

Since the summer of 2021, I have become somewhat interested in nature and by extension, solarpunk. Around the start of 2024 however, one of my IRL friends was talking about flowers and their floral class and I became interested in flowers and other flora, particularly pressing, picking, and cutting flowers. I also have downloaded an app that idenifies flowers and it seems to be somewhat accurate.

clocks and electronics

I’ve always liked electronics and STEM ever since I have been taught how electrical circuits work back in elementary school. In middle school I signed up for engineering and STEM related class, and currently in a STEM program for high school. I also have Lego Technic (genuine and knockoff) that I occasionaly tinker with, and recently I'm also getting interested in clocks, especially ones that chime or play music.
