Engineering student at ENSAM Meknes (École Nationale Supérieure d'Arts et Métiers), currently surviving the cycle préparatoire — a ritual where sleep is a myth and coffee is a food group.
I build things that are:
- correct before they are clever
- fast because I measured it, not because I guessed (hopefully)
- explicit about what they trade off
- deterministic under load (unlike me on exam week)
I'm drawn to problems where understanding the machine matters as much as writing code. The kind of bugs that only appear at 3am, in production, on a leap year.
Currently going deeper into: Rust ownership model · Modern C++ idioms · Linux internals · Quantitative finance (yes, the pivot is real)
correctness > hacks
measurement > intuition
simple systems > fragile abstractions
visible failure > silent failure
good sleep > ... nah, who am I kidding

🎵 MiCavaModern C++ reimplementation of Cava using GLFW3. Real-time audio visualization with actual performance constraints — not just pretty bars.
|
🏙️ CitySkyLineCity simulation: design infrastructure, manage taxation, balance budgets, watch things go wrong in interesting ways. SimCity at home.
|
Pen plotter built from scratch. Supports Arduino + ESP. Motion planning, embedded control, hardware–software integration — the full cursed stack.
