SYS·03 — The Pilot
Two cockpits, one instinct.
I'm a commercial pilot who builds software. When I'm not flying, I'm building — usually solving a problem I ran into myself, then realizing other people have it too.
Flying taught me to trust the system, read the instruments, and stay calm when it matters. I build the same way: carefully, then all at once. Always climbing.
