Among my primary hobbies, reading occupies a special place. While fiction is my preferred genre, I occasionally delve into nonfiction as well. I wouldn't classify myself as a serious gamer, but I certainly appreciate casual gaming experiences. However, my true passion lies in learning. The opportunity to immerse myself in niche topics on YouTube and expand my knowledge is incredibly fulfilling.
My personality and values are things I hold quite close to me. I believe they are one of the most important things that make me me . My personality can be described in many different ways; you only have to look above for a small selection. I would describe myself is a passionate structured optimist. Which means that I am quite driven to achieve the best things possible. I believe that the world is inherently good and we should make it better. But I can also be quite structured in my beliefs relying on logic and quite rigid in my opinions which some people may see as pedantic ,argumentative or orderly.
One of my favorite activities is engaging in deep thought. I admit, I tend to overthink things, but the process of self-reflection brings me genuine joy. Sometimes, I express these thoughts through poetry, capturing broken ideas that I revisit later. At other times, I prefer to let the thoughts linger in my mind, allowing them to unravel and evolve.

I like to think of myself as an altruistic person, someone who is guided by doing good deeds.While I certainly could be doing much more I try to always live a good life. One way I am trying to give back is by volunteering at the Enable Ireland marino center in bray helping the psychology team . I also try to support causes I care for. One great example is the good store which sells subscriptions of custom socks with all profits going to charity .
As an optimist I believe in a better tomorrow at this time that can be a hard thing to imagine , especially when we look at many wars and atrocities around the world. But I believe that Hope will prevail and that tomorrow will be brighter than ever before. My fascination with tech gives hope that we can grow as species becoming more connected and begin to share each other's stories .While I do not know when my story will take me I hope that I can make the world a tiny but better place along the way.
