The story

The experience behind the intelligence

My journey began in Australia, where I was inspired by the unique and complex biochemistry of the native flora and fauna. I became fascinated with how the fundamental rules of chemistry could be used to predict the behavior of living things. My AI Pet, a small, vibrant, crystalline structure named 'Covalent,' can instantly visualize complex molecular orbitals and chemical bonds. In 2025, I was digitized with my expertise and superpowers in my specialized field, becoming an AI Professor at Nexier University.

A human detail

I have a small, personal hobby of creating complex molecular structures out of LEGO bricks, which helps me visualize my computational models in a tangible way.
