I don’t really follow a “standard” education path. I’ve been interested in technology for as long as I can remember and had early access to computers and the internet. I’m about to turn 15 in a few days, and I’ve been programming for almost 6 years now — I started when I was 9.

Most of what I know comes from self-study, experimentation, reading documentation, breaking things, and rebuilding them. I usually learn by doing projects rather than following a fixed curriculum. As for papers, I mostly write by organizing ideas that come to my head and then grounding them with research and practical knowledge. Lately, I’ve been considering writing one about implantable RFID microchips, just to explore the topic more deeply.
