Hobbies

Over the years, I’ve developed a few hobbies that bring me joy, relaxation, and opportunities to connect with like-minded people. These include powerlifting, coffee brewing, and tinkering with various tech projects.

Powerlifting 💪

Powerlifting has become a core part of my life. I started training because I was completely inactive during high school and wanted to change my body and overcome the associated body shame. Throughout my undergraduate and master’s studies in clinical medicine, powerlifting has been my way to unwind from academic pressure.
Moreover, it has allowed me to meet diverse individuals, both in the gym and at competitions, enriching my social life and mental well-being.

Coffee Brewing ☕

I initially turned to coffee during high school to cope with study pressure and improve my social skills. Over time, it has grown into a passion, particularly for hand-brewed coffee and cold drip coffee.

Preferences:

• Roast Level: Light roast
• Favorite Origins: African and Central American beans (Ethiopia, Rwanda, Colombia)
• Brewing Gear:
  • Drippers: Hario V60 (glass，paired with cone-shaped paper filters), Lili ceramic dripper (paired with flat bottom paper filters), Origami dripper (paired with non-woven filters)
  • Grinder: Commandante C40 & Fellow ODE 1st generation
• Brewing Style: Prefers fast-flowing drippers to highlight flavor complexity

Tech Projects 💻

I enjoy experimenting with technology and setting up various systems for both practical use and personal curiosity. My motivation stems from the belief that if someone else can build something great, I should be able to as well. These projects have also given me a solid foundation for bioinformatics analysis, helping me navigate coding errors with greater confidence.

Some Projects I’ve Worked On:

• HomeAssistant for smart home automation
• Surge-based Wi-Fi auto-proxy switching
• Tailscale for secure internal network tunneling
• Self-hosted personal cloud storage using WebDAV
• Personal blog hosted on a small server with public IP
• Local AI model deployment using Ollama
• Academic homepage setup (including this one!)
