Hacker by day, lifelong learner by night.

My polymath journey thrives on daily 1% growth, anchored in:

Eager to expand this list—and myself—through life’s adventures.

being a husband and a father
founded and built hexafarms from 0 to 400k ARR business and left when it’s time for the next step
served in the Special Forces and learned what the patience is like
flew to Australia without money and English knowledge, but finally saved the money for tuition fees
volunteered as a math teacher for students from less fortunate families
joined one of the biggest automotive companies (Hyundai Motors) and left when it’s time for the next step
graduated with honors in Mechanical Engineering (BSc) and Robotics (MSc)
extended master research and published it in the research paper
narrated my story as the top story

shipping fast beats waiting for perfection
- better to iterate quickly, fail fast, and fix than to over-engineer
pursue truth ruthlessly
- truth often hurts—but it’s necessary
- truth comes after a long reflection
seek and embrace feedback
- take criticism objectively, without ego
- give feedback that’s clear, kind, and constructive
- radical candor
leadership is accountability, not authority
- own outcomes, regardless of title or role
measure success by quantitative impact
- it’s often hard to track progress—but what gets measured gets improved
hard things take time
- difficult concept to understand? take time to read repeatedly
- non agreeable opinions? experience it and be in one’s shoes.
- break it down into smaller pieces and tackle them one by one
customers pay you, not your boss
- customers tell you what they want, but it’s not always what solves their pain
- be obsessed with finding what really solves their pain
- seek to understand, not to be understood
