Now

What I'm focused on right now, and what I've been up to recently.

Lately, I've been refining the writing across the site to make it feel more like me, talking about what I did and why I did it rather than just listing features. It felt right to rewrite the Saffira blog posts from a first-person perspective, sharing the raw decisions behind the BroadcastChannel synchronization and feature-first architecture refactoring, and linking them directly inside the Aton case study under a new 'Engineering notes' section.

I also built a dedicated Books section. Reading has always been a major gateway for my self-improvement, and I wanted a place to catalog what's currently on my desk. I set up visual circular progress gauges to track my reading velocity, populated it with the books I have on my drive, and left *AI Engineering* by Chip Huyen as my active focus.

Focusing on building this portfolio website, and days are passing fast. It's been an intensive loop of polishing pages, crafting interactive SVGs/diagrams, and detailing design/architecture choices so everything feels highly premium, responsive, and alive.

Most of my recent energy has gone into drafting structural case studies for projects like Aton Occurrences and Aton DevOps & Architecture. Building custom client-side diagrams (like the multi-tab crosstab sync simulator) from scratch has been a fun challenge to bridge the gap between complex engineering concepts and visual storytelling.

Balancing this web rebuild with backend studying, taking quiet winter evenings to read, and enjoying the process of shipping my own digital home.
