About

What I enjoy and how I think

I enjoy the moment an idea becomes a system someone can use and trust. Researching video summarization taught me to find what matters in a lot of data. In the machine learning and LLM systems I work on today, evaluation and reliability matter just as much.

Away from work, I slow down with strong coffee, walks through new cities, Formula 1, and rembetika.

NASA’s image of the day is a small reason to pause and learn something outside my usual work.

Small detours

A few things I check for fun

Recent music, curious facts, race quotes, and a programming joke when I need a break.

Race weekend

The strategy behind the race

I follow the decisions that change a Formula 1 race: tyre calls, timing, and risk. The full calendar and standings live on the Formula page.

Outside work

Coffee

Strong coffee, every day.
