Change of Perspective
There are number of good non English movies and TV series that can change the way any one think and look at this world and life in it. Here are some of my favorites.
The Medici as a Blueprint for Data-Driven Futures
History has always been a lens for understanding the present, but for me it has become something more: a blueprint for designing better systems. As someone who works in data analytics and data engineering, I see striking parallels between Renaissance Florence and modern data platforms, especially when watching Medici: Masters of Florence and Medici: The Magnificent.
Versailles, History, and the Data-Driven Mind
As a data analytics and data engineering professional, most learning happens in front of SQL editors,
dashboards, and documentation tools. Yet some of the most valuable lessons about systems, power,
and human behavior come from an unexpected place: historical drama.
One recent example is Versailles, a three-season series about King Louis XIV and the creation
of the Palace of Versailles. The show explores how a young monarch centralizes power by relocating
the French court from Paris to Versailles, transforming a hunting lodge into a tightly controlled
system of influence, politics, and authority. It is a world of shifting alliances, hidden agendas,
poisoners, and enemies operating at every level of status and power.
The Great Flood
As a data engineer moving toward AI, I see The Great Flood as a metaphor for how we design emotion-aware systems: iterative simulations, curated memory, and clear objectives. My work in SQL-driven pipelines, data quality, and governance directly aligns with building trustworthy “emotion engines” that learn from structured experience, not noise. This intersection of analytics, simulation, and human-centered design is exactly where I aim to grow my AI career.
Journal
Welcome to my space—a collection of thoughts, experiences, and lessons gathered along the way.
This blog brings together my professional life in
data engineering, analytics, AI, and data pipelines
with the everyday interests that keep me curious and grounded.
You’ll find reflections on learning and problem-solving,
alongside posts about hiking, travel, gardening, cooking, movies, and hobbies
that shape my perspective beyond the screen.
I also write about practical, real-world topics such as
tenancy, rentals, short-term accommodations, and the housing market,
informed by observation, research, and lived experience.
Whether I’m exploring a trail, building a data workflow, or analyzing systems that impact daily life,
my goal is the same: to share insights that are thoughtful, practical, and useful.
This blog is both a journal and a knowledge hub—where technology meets life,
and learning never stops.
