     <div class="my-6 flex flex-col gap-6 ">
-      <p>As a friendly and understanding software engineer, I bring a unique blend of technical expertise,
-        problem-solving enthusiasm, and debugging skills to my work. With a passion for building innovative
-        solutions that make a difference, I've had the privilege of working on various projects across
-        industries.</p>
+      <p>Hello 👋, I'm a Software Engineer with a passion for <span
+          class="font-bold bg-clip-text text-transparent bg-gradient-to-r from-[#ffce00] to-red-500">Rust</span> and
+        Open-Source Software. With a knack for
+        problem solving, I balance code with exploration and find peace in a cup of hot coffee next to an open fire!</p>
+
+
       <p>My journey in software development began with a curiosity about how things worked behind the
-        scenes. This led me to explore different areas, from IoT software to revenue cycle management, and
+        scenes, on the web. This led me to working with various companies across
+        industries from IoT software to revenue cycle management, and
         even dabbling in enterprise-level projects. Through these experiences, I've developed a strong
         foundation in debugging, troubleshooting, and finding creative solutions to complex problems.</p>
