Beyond Science: Drafting My First Book ✍️
August 31, 2025
Not every passion fits neatly into equations or simulations. I believe a person can’t be fully defined by their profession, and while engineering and research are core to who I am, I don’t want to be known only as a scientist.
What brings me a different kind of fulfillment is the artistic, reflective side — the part that enjoys storytelling, introspection, and creative expression. It’s not about completing myself with work, but about understanding myself through multiple lenses.
That is why I’ve started drafting a book — a work of fiction, blending memory with imagination. At its core, it explores a single defining story: a moment in a person’s life that changed them forever. It is about how that experience shaped their character for the better, yet also left behind the quiet weight of regrets — things left undone, words left unsaid, paths never taken.
What fascinates me is the paradox of being human: how someone can carry both transformation and regret at the same time, moving forward each day not by forgetting, but by learning to live with both. This tension — between growth and what lingers unresolved — is where the story lives.
For me, fiction is the bridge. It allows me to trace such a journey with imagination while keeping it rooted in the real. What I hope to capture is that fragile in-between state, where a life is neither neatly resolved nor fully explained, only lived.
