About me
Passion for Engineering
For me being an engineer is not a profession like any other. It is a passion.
Being fascinated to see how things work, in nature, and in technology among those who went before me inventing things.
To see, how energy is converted from one form to another, sometimes indefinitely slow, sometimes within nanoseconds.
Thinking outside the box, combining Math, Physics, Chemistry, Biology with Geography and History,
to see more clearly and be even more amazed at the brilliance of design around us.
Molding everything seen and learned into new shapes of creative ingenuity, that solve problems, but at the same time fascinate and inspire.
Pursuant of the One Master Engineer, who invented and developed this world we live in.
Who said in the Bible: “It is the glory of God to conceal a matter; to search out a matter is the glory of kings.” (Proverbs 25:2)
