Computer Science student building at the intersection of cybersecurity, software, and curiosity.

01 :: ABOUT

Who I am

I am a Computer Science student at Lewis & Clark College with a strong interest in cybersecurity, software engineering, and building projects that feel useful outside the classroom. I was born in Kalamata, Greece, and my path has been shaped by curiosity, independence, and the chance to study in different environments.

At 16, I left Greece to attend UWC Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina on a full scholarship, an experience that pushed me to grow up quickly, meet people from all over the world, and think about problems from many different perspectives. That experience still influences how I work today: I like being open-minded, adaptable, and willing to figure things out even when they feel unfamiliar.

A lot of my technical experience comes from hands-on work. I have worked with programming, algorithm analysis, peer tutoring, technical support, and cybersecurity challenges. As a peer tutor, I enjoy helping other students understand difficult concepts because explaining something clearly means you truly understand it yourself.

I like combining logic with creativity. Sometimes that means building a small tool, experimenting with AI ideas, designing a modern interface, or giving a project a visual identity that feels unique. This portfolio reflects both sides of how I like to work: professional and structured, but also curious, personal, and creative.
