About me
i’ve been hooked on tech since i was a kid, and my journey’s been a wild ride. at 13, i sold my first piece of software—an instagram bot—then built an erp system. that’s when i knew i wanted to create tech that makes the world easier to navigate. i got to learn math from Lajos Pósa, a legend, and competed together with fazekas’s lego robotics team, sharpening my skills in building and problem-solving.
as a teen, i dove into bigger projects. i designed a decentralized logistics system from the ground up, blending math and code. it won an innovation award and landed me a researcher job at 17.
teaming up with Janos, we crushed some cool projects. we built a recommendation system based on how buyers interact, then tackled agent-based fluid sims for cars to predict traffic jams. we also created a csgo video data pipeline for a foundational game engine model, taking it from plan to real-world build. running builder launchpad, we led 20 teams on high-tech projects and scored a €10k grant for the best one.
right now, we’re working on a mobile app that turns images into build instructions for lego, set to handle 150m users by q1 2026. another fun one was a high-altitude navigation system for a balloon navigation system that hit 30km up, hitting state-of-the-art on a €2k budget.
