Q: Tell us a few things about yourself. What does no one know about you?
A: I’ll keep it short and straightforward. I enjoy spending time outdoors, whether we talk about walks, biking, or just reading and relaxing. I also want everything art-related, especially painting; I find it enjoyable.
Q: How did you get interested in programming? What is the most exciting project you have worked on?
A: I got into programming in high school, though we learned some basic concepts during that time. Still, I found them very interesting and wanted to continue studying. Fortunately, I got to work on diverse projects in uni, nothing too complicated. One project I remember was an image processing one; I had to find light sources in dark photos and brighten them up accordingly to those sources. It was an exciting challenge on a new subject, and I enjoyed it.
