About Me
I am from Trinidad and have a BSc. in Electrical and Computer Engineering at UWI St. Augustine. I currently work as a DevOps Engineer at CIBC Caribbean and I occasionally do some personal projects on the side. Since getting into tech, some of the things I've been interested in are:
- Nix/NixOS: Very cool package management system/distro. Isolated builds with explicit dependency specification without virtualization, combined with system configuration/deployment makes it a breeze to manage my server. When I wiped my personal computer (to resize some partitions), I was back up and running with my prior setup in minutes. I could also deploy services to my server with just a few lines of code (see my dotfiles for how I do this).
- Rust: Rust is pretty well known by know, but I like to mention it because its what really got me into properly modelling the domain of what I was working on when writing software. I don't write as much as I would like to right now, but I do use it a lot when doing embedded code (e.g. on my ESP32).
- Zig: One of my favorite languages to write in, because its simple yet flexible. It does have a breaking changes every once in a while (since it hasn't hit 1.0 yet), and the LSP is not that great, but comptime basically gives you coding superpowers.
- Go: Very easy to use, and get running basically anywhere. Whenever I need to write a short one off script that needs more than what a shell script can easily do, I usually turn to Go.
Outside of tech, I like watching F1 (my favorite drivers are Alonso and Piastri), and playing Marvel Rivals, Balatro, Crusader Kings 3. I also read a lot of manga and light novels, though I haven't watched any anime in a while.
