Building a home for the work
Why I rebuilt this site as a simple, editable place for projects, technical notes, and ideas in progress.
For a long time, this domain pointed to a placeholder. The repository existed, the infrastructure mostly existed, but the site did not say anything useful about the work.
This rebuild starts with a deliberately small foundation: a home page, a project collection, and a blog. Each project and post is an ordinary Markdown file, so publishing should feel closer to writing a note than maintaining an application.
What I want this site to become
I want a place where finished work and the path toward it can live together. Some entries will be polished case studies. Others may be short technical notes that capture one useful result before it disappears into a folder or chat history.
The subject matter will follow the work: mechanical engineering, computational design, robotics, optimization, software, and whatever connects them.
Keeping the system simple
A personal site should be easy enough to update that the tools do not become an excuse. This one is generated by GitHub Pages from Markdown. There is no database, admin dashboard, or paid hosting plan. A commit is a publish button.
That simplicity is the point. Now there is somewhere for the next project—and the next question—to go.
