Italian and Egyptian by heritage, shaped by a life lived between Britain, Australia and Italy. I’m endlessly curious about how things work — from the systems level to a personal passion for technology. I code, tinker with electronics, build things with Raspberry Pis and 3D printers. I’m endlessly curious and generally enjoy the journey from “I wonder if I could…” to working towards something that actually works.

Away from the screen, I’m learning piano and Italian, and every summer I perform the slightly mysterious ritual of turning green walnuts into homemade nocino.

I divide my time between London, the English countryside and Northern Italy — three places that have influenced how I think, eat, make and live.

This blog is where all of those threads meet: culture, systems thinking, technology, making, food, music, Italy, learning and whatever else I happen to be curious about.
