$ ls -la ~/adventures/

Beyond coding and trading systems, I enjoy staying active through various sports and recreational activities.

🎱 Billiards

Billiards Action Shot

Precision and Strategy

Like programming, billiards requires precision, strategy, and calculated moves. The game teaches patience and the importance of thinking several shots ahead - skills that translate well to algorithmic trading.

Quick Decisions Under Pressure

Tennis has taught me to make split-second decisions under pressure - a skill invaluable in high-frequency trading where milliseconds matter. The sport emphasizes adaptability and quick reflexes.

Risk Assessment & Balance

Snowboarding combines risk assessment with the thrill of speed. Each run requires evaluating terrain, conditions, and personal limits - principles that apply directly to financial risk management.

## Life Balance Philosophy

"The same principles that make you successful in sports - discipline, strategy, continuous learning, and risk management - are the foundation of excellence in technology and finance. Physical activities keep the mind sharp and provide fresh perspectives for problem-solving."

Skills That Cross Over:

  • Precision: Billiards → Code Quality → Trading Execution
  • Quick Decision Making: Tennis → System Response → Market Timing
  • Risk Assessment: Snowboarding → Portfolio Management → System Architecture
  • Continuous Improvement: All Sports → Learning New Technologies → Strategy Optimization
