I'm Ivan, a mechanical design engineer. I work on CAD modeling and technical development, but I also enjoy coding and exploring niches. I’m really into skill toys. Kendama is my main focus now, but yoyoing has been a big part of my life for years. I got my first yoyo in primary school, then upgraded to better models in high school, and over time, my collection grew to well over 100. I also enjoy movies of all genres, sports like snowboarding, ski touring, cycling, and swimming, and reading books, comics, and blogs.
