+## About
+
+Hi, I’m Latte.
+
+I build systems the way I like my coffee: intentional, layered, and warm.
+
+Most of my work revolves around Python — tooling, services, automation, and infrastructure experiments. I enjoy understanding the full stack, from application logic down to deployment and CI/CD. I prefer systems that are reproducible, transparent, and self-hosted whenever possible.
+
+hiddenden.cafe is my personal space on the internet.  
+Part lab, part archive, part long-term project.
+
+---
+
+## What I Work With
+
+- Python (primary)
+- Docker & containerized workflows
+- CI/CD (Gitea Actions)
+- Self-hosted infrastructure
+- Web (HTML, CSS, JavaScript when needed)
+
+Lately I’ve also been exploring lower-level ecosystems and new languages to deepen my understanding of how systems work underneath the surface.
+
+---
+
+## Philosophy
+
+I value:
+
+- Clear architecture over hype
+- Automation over repetition
+- Security by design
+- Long-term maintainability
+- Building in public, but thoughtfully
+
+I believe infrastructure should feel understandable and calm — not chaotic or fragile.
+
+---
+
+## Current Focus
+
+- Strengthening CI/CD pipelines
+- Improving deployment workflows
+- Creating reusable repository templates
+- Refining my development environments
+- Growing hiddenden.cafe into something sustainable
