Hey! My name is Adrian, and I'm a well-rounded software engineer with over 10 years of programming experience. I've been working professionally for the last 5 years and in that time I've worked with a large amount of languages like Rust, C/C++, Java, Javascript/Typescript, PHP, Python, Kotlin, Swift, C#, x86 assembly, and more. I also have experience with an ever-increasing number of related technologies including React/NextJS, Vue/Nuxt, Tailwind, HTMX, Axum, Express, Fastify, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Docker, Kubernetes, and Git just to name a few.
Over the years I've had the opportunity to explore many different fields such as web development, mobile development, systems programming, embedded firmware development, game/graphics programming, compiler engineering, operating system development, and many others. Currently I'm employed full-time at Adom Industries Inc. where I work all across the software (and hardware) stack tackling exciting problems in robotics and distributed systems.

dinOS (in development)
A 32-bit hobby operating system written in x86 assembly made to explore low level computing and the x86 architecture. It features a multi-stage bootloader which includes FAT12 drivers and a spec compliant BIOS disk IO wrapper. The kernel is still in the very early stages but supports interrupt handling, VGA text mode drivers, and memory paging.
- Stage 1 bootloader written in x86 assembly
- BIOS disk IO wrapper
- FAT12 file system driver
- Stage 2 loader
- Error tolerant design with error messages
- All fits into 512 byte boot sector (448 bytes when you subtract space occupied by BPB)
- Stage 2 bootloader written in x86 assembly
- Kernel loader
- GDT initializer
- 32-bit protected mode initializer
- Kernel written in x86 assembly (for now)
- VGA text mode drivers
- PIC programming
- IDT setup
- Interrupt handling
- Memory Paging
- PS/2 Keyboard Drivers
