Personal

I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, and exploring. In my free time, I love researching on latest advancements in the field of AI within aerospace, going to the gym, and playing with my two boys. I believe in the importance of balancing work with personal growth and maintaining strong relationships with loved ones.

In addition to my technical work, I enjoy various outdoor activities such as running, walking, and playing soccer.
