About Me
Hi there! I'm Taine, a computer systems engineering student with a passion for bridging the gap between the digital world and the physical one. I love tinkering with various projects and solving complex problems. When I'm not making things, I like to play guitar and take photos.
Draw me a picture!

I recently built a little desktop status display using an E-ink screen and some old analog current meters. It displays my CPU and RAM usage, as well as an image or my current Spotify song. You can draw or upload a photo to it below!
