Victoria

Victoria sitting cross-legged in a sunlit meadow, a sticker-covered laptop open on her knees, looking up into the trees.

This site is a living record of my life.

I’ve been tracking habits, milestones, training, things I’ve learned, watched and read, and a ton more data for a long time now.

In this site, you’ll find all the books I’ve read, movies I’ve watched, training sessions I’ve completed, hours I’ve studied, and the achievements in between, updated live in real time. This is everything that really makes me, me.

A laptop lid held up to the camera, covered edge to edge in stickers — a smiley face, a green dinosaur, 'Tech: Europe', 'I love DATA'.

I currently work as an open source engineer at netbird. I didn’t always know I was going to work in tech, and I definitely never thought that I would be a content creator. But also, when you look back, it does makes sense.

Life is defined by more than big milestones and achievements. A simple, small habit can have a profound impact over time, and often, it’s the repetative, day-to-day actions that end up taking most of our time.

And so, this site has ended up as kind of the opposite of a CV in a lot of ways. It shows what’s happened in between the lines of my work, what I value, and how I’ve grown over time. I hope you have fun exploring!
