SOLVING
PROBLEMS.

That's what I do.

You see,
I'm a programmer,
but just as the brush doesn't define the artist, coding doesn't define me.

Developing, designing, marketing, and crafting exceptional products, to name a few, are merely tools – means to an end.

What I actually desire is to creatively orchestrate ideas, skills and resources to solve real-world problems and make a meaningful, and positive impact on people's lives.

About

Let's. get. personal.

I'm Adir.
Born on June 7th, 1998 - that gives you 0 seconds to pick the perfect birthday gift – no pressure.
I'm the youngest of three but the first to go in the academic route, currently navigating the world of Computer Science as a student at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

When I'm not searching for bugs in my code, you'll find me either drumming or strumming the guitar because music is a huge passion of mine.
Video games, constant learning, exercising, and quality time with my nephews also rank high up on my 'Things I Enjoy' list.

I'm also deeply intrigued by the realms of business, philosophy, psychology, and science.
I find myself thinking or learning about them almost everyday.

My recommendations:
  • Music: Greta Van Fleet, Dirty Honey, Roger Troutman.
  • TV Shows: Boardwalk Empire, The Good Place, One Piece.
  • Movies: Bullet Train, Life Is Beautiful, Papillon(1973).
  • Video Games: Grim Dawn, Farcry 3, Dishonored.
  • Youtube Channels: Ze Frank, Kurzgesagt (In a Nutshell), James Jani.
  • Books:
    • Non-Fiction: Anything by MJ DeMarco, The Right It (Alberto Savoia), A Short History of Nearly Everything (Bill Bryson), The Courage To Be Disliked (Ichiro Kishimi , Fumitake Koga).
    • Fiction: Eragon (Christopher Paolini), 1984 (George Orwell), Frankenstein (Mary Shelley).
