hello.

I'm Igna. I think best in quiet spaces and I tend to keep to them. Most of my time goes into building—clean code, tight interfaces, and systems that make sense. When I'm not at the desk, I train for discipline: calisthenics, bouldering, tennis, and long runs. Movement clears the noise.

expertise.

I'm a software engineer by trade, but I like to think of myself more as a software alchemist. It's a kind of art—taking something complex, messy, or inefficient, and refining it into something simple, elegant, and fast.

My strength lies in restructuring systems and streamlining logic—shaving off the unnecessary until what's left just works. The payoff? Easier debugging, quicker iteration, and codebases you don't dread revisiting.

These days, I build mostly for the web, working with Svelte and TypeScript. I've explored a wide spectrum of languages: Assembly, Bash, C, C++, Dart (Flutter), GDScript, Haskell, Java, Python, and a few others I've probably forgotten. I don't mind the language. Once you understand the fundamentals, the rest follows.

Though I can go full-stack when needed, my focus is frontend. I care about interfaces—how they feel, how they guide, how they stay out of the way.

not everything needs to be loud. these platforms are tools, not identities. some stuck, some didn't—but they've all held fragments of me at some point.

trivia.

• INTJ or so the test claims, take it as you will
• scorpio if that means anything to you
• can hold my breath for around 2 minutes
