Hello! Iā€™m a seasoned IT engineer. I started my career coding TCP/IP stacks in Assembler and C.
Now living in Nasushiobara, Japan, I enjoy "hands-on" projects:
ā€¢ Restoring 1950s vacuum tube radios.
ā€¢ Building custom audio gear with Raspberry Pi.
ā€¢ Gardening and learning about local flora.
I love the intersection of vintage hardware and FOSS. Excited to connect with you!
