CURRENT MISSION

be myself in an intolerant world

ABOUT ME

Be myself, enjoy what I do and help improve the world by doing what I love.

I also happen to savor beer anytime and heavy hitting when necessary :)

Being an engineer probably has had influence on me, but I'm constantly try to be curious about the world and perserve my sense of humour, which happens to be rather hot sometimes :)

PHILOSOPHY

"I never trust anyone who's more excited about success than about doing the things they want to be successful at"

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: mainly the underground scene and artists who do music for the sake of it, whether being hard rock, jazz or electronic.

Books: "Surely You're Joking mr Feynman", Terry Pratchett in general with personal favourites - "Small Gods", "Good Omens", "Atlas Shrugged", "The Fountainhead", "Catch 22", "A Song of Fire and Ice" and many, many others

Movies: I like movies which are able to surprise me and keep me interested and focused, for example almost every David Lynch film. Other favourites include Fight Club, The Green Mile, The Shawshank Redemption, Children of Men, The Man From Earth, etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, something being amazing is probably different for everyone, but I think I may add a few things here:
- developed an algorithm for visual control of industrial robot
- slided on the path of the highest waterfall in Bulgaria frozen waterfall

otherwise I'm a rather dull person :), but am constantly fighting it :D
