Hi, I'm Lorenzo. I build things for the web and beyond.
I'm a software engineer and machine learning enthusiast based in California. With a passion for building innovative solutions, I specialize in full-stack development and artificial intelligence applications.
When I'm not coding, you'll find me rock climbing, producing electronic music, or exploring new coffee shops around the world. I believe in continuous learning and pushing the boundaries of what's possible with technology.

My Journey
My journey in tech began with a fascination for problem-solving and a desire to create meaningful impact. Through my work in software development and machine learning, I've had the opportunity to work on diverse projects that challenge conventional thinking and push technological boundaries.
I'm particularly passionate about the intersection of artificial intelligence and human-centered design. My goal is to build technology that not only solves complex problems but also enhances human capabilities and creates positive change.

Man's Search for Meaning
Viktor E. Frankl • 1946
Through the lens of his experiences in Nazi concentration camps, Frankl explores humanity's quest for purpose. His logotherapy approach suggests that our primary drive is not pleasure, but the discovery and pursuit of what we find meaningful.

Thus Spoke Zarathustra
