I’m Adrien, software engineer from France, and currently based in Montréal, Québec. I’ve been passionate about programming ever since my teenage years, with a broad range of interests — graphics, compilers & languages, low-level & hardware, audio, functional programming, etc.

You can view some of my public projects on GitHub.

In the summer of 2016, I had the chance to spend three months in New York City at the Recurse Center, an educational, self-directed retreat for programmers. It was one of the best time in my life, and I got to meet and share the space with an amazing and diverse group of people. I’d recommend the experience to anyone who is passionate about programming.

Outside of programming, I’m also an avid music listener and concertgoer (with a preference in particular for avant-garde metal & synthwave), avid rock climber, occasional surfer, amateur guitar player and video games enthusiast.

This blog was built using Hugo for content management. The design was crafted by myself, in HTML5 and CSS3. I’m using the amazing Libre Baskerville font paired with PT Sans Narrow for the titles. Both are served from Google Fonts. Hosting is provided by GitLab, which also provides (for free!) the private repo that hosts all the draft and configuration for this blog.
