about me
Bugs Are My Best Teachers
01 // crash log
My real Android education started not in a classroom — but at 2 AM, staring at a crash log. I had just wired up Room DB with Firebase for the first time in NewSynk, and the app was silently overwriting fresh server data with stale local cache on every sync. No exception. Just wrong data, everywhere.
02 // wireshark trace
Three hours and a Wireshark trace later, I understood offline-first conflict resolutionbetter than any tutorial could teach. That session is why I obsess over data consistency, clean architecture, and edge cases most people don't think about until production.
03 // present
Today I build production-grade Android apps with Jetpack Compose, contribute to open-source through GSSoC & SWOC, and study threat analysis through the Palo Alto Networks Academy — because the best engineers understand both how to build systems and how they get broken.
