I've always loved tinkering with things as long as I can remember. As a kid, though I broke more often than I created, I enjoyed every bit of being able to have an idea in mind and see it come alive. I soon discovered my love for programming and decided to major in software engineering. This opened up a whole universe of stuff to learn, build and break.

My name is Aita Joshua Prince, but you can call me Winzer Prince. I'm a 22-year-old software engineering student. I have a strong interest in math, systems programming, and engineering in general especially where I can appreciate the nuances of complex problems as I dive deep into solving them.

Outside code, I'm into indie music (Her's, Gus Dapperton, Night Tapes), I play guitar, and I love anime, especially Hayao Miyazaki's films and late 80s to early 2000s classics like Gohst in the Shell.

In my first year, I fell in love with Linux (thanks, Windows), explored Kali, Arch, Ubuntu, and eventually settled on Fedora which I still use today. That journey made me obsessed with peeling back abstractions and understanding how everything works under the hood.

I learned that the creative freedom I had increased as abstractions decrease so I dove into learning languages closer to the machine like C, go, zig and others just to leverage that freedom. I'm currently on the never ending journey to learn what I needed to create whatever I want or imagine. This eventually led to devography, a record of my learning journey where I post my thoughts, chapters from books and ideas I would love to share for all those interested, hopefully to inspire more like-minded individuals to learn in their own unique ways.
