PROFILE // ENGINEER_SPEC_v1.0.0

Hey, I'm Francis!

I'm an engineer and builder driven by curiosity and imagination. In engineering, I focus on building and scaling systems, especially large-scale infrastructure and product development. I'm deeply curious about how and why systems are built, and I enjoy continously learning and improving.

Outside, of engineering, I enjoy reading about topics that pique my intrests, such as self-improvement, finance, and sports. I'm also actively training as a triathlete, pushing my limits both physically and mentally, as I believe that you can't make an impact on the world without first making an impact on yourself.
