About
I grew up curious - math, physics, and then computers the moment my father brought home our first PC. While everyone else was focused on games, I wanted to know how everything worked.
I taught myself to build websites and break databases, learning mostly through mistakes and late nights on forums. The people I met online during those years became some of my closest friends. We still talk.
I read constantly: programming, architecture, engineering leadership, how to build teams, how to think clearly. Books shaped how I work more than any job did. The stack on my desk is a live document.
Berlin was always the plan. I'd wanted to live here since I was a kid - something about the city stuck early. When I had the chance to move abroad, I chose Malaysia first. I spent a few good years in Kuala Lumpur, built a career, learned how to lead teams in a place where I knew no one. Eventually I made it to Berlin. It's still where I want to be.
Outside of work: I play piano, travel by caravan (Wohnmobil - one of the better German words), go to the gym, and walk my dog. I like meeting people from different backgrounds and hearing how they see the world. Most people complain about the Berlin weather. I think the seasons are a reminder to take care of yourself.
Currently learning German. Slowly.
On the name
The site is called mohism — part nickname, part philosophy. Mohism was an ancient Chinese school of thought founded by Mozi around 470 BCE. Mohists judged ideas by their practical outcomes, not their origins or authority. They valued meritocracy, universal concern, and anti-fatalism — the belief that results are shaped by action, not fate. I came across it long after I'd already internalized most of its principles. The overlap felt too deliberate to ignore.
