### About me

I am a self-thought software engineer at [Zendesk](https://zendesk.com). Even though I  started my professional programming career relatively late in life, I have always been passionate about computers. I love the process of creating software. Even though I consider caring about the product a requisite, the technical side is what strongly drives me. I take great pride in what and how I do things. I have extensive experience working with Ruby on Rails and relative databases. I am expanding my knowledge around service-oriented architecture, no-SQL databases, and other languages. But then again, who isn't?

I am also...

- ... a father and a husband
- ... driven by passion
- ... GNU/Linux user
- ... not utilitarian
- ... terrible at action games
- ... even worse at board games
- ... an adventure gamer
- ... an ex PHP-er
- ... hitting 40
- ... an NeoVIM user (but learning Emacs!)
- ... an anime enthusiast


### Contact

I don't use social media except for YouTube. Therefore, you won't find me on Twitter, TikTok, nor Mastodon. The best way to contact me is via email:

[contact@michal.sapka.me](mailto:contact@michal.sapka.me).

You can find my GPG key [here](/michal.gpg). 

```
curl -sL https://michal.sapka.me/michal.gpg | gpg --import
```

Did you know that encrypting email increases the chances of a reply by 127%?
