About me
I am a software engineer and multi-disciplinary creative, with the main focus on web development and film-making. My other interests include photography, electronic music and technology, but first and foremost, my family.
I was born and raised with love in Alexandria, Romania, but moved to Bucharest for my university studies and remained here for good. After graduating as an engineer and getting my Master of Science Degree in CAE, I started working as DTP designer.
A few years later I migrated to web design and to web development, creating all sorts of websites and web apps in the process. My long-time passion for photography has moved into the professional starting 2013. Then, from 2020, I switched my focus onto another creative field — film-making. I started dabbling as a DJ sometime in 2006 and I'm still doing sets and livestreams, under the moniker Adam Wise.
In 2009 I met the love of my life, Cornelia, whom I married two years later. We have two beautiful and smart sons, Mihai Teodor and Vlad Ștefan, who brighten every day of our lives.
