Hello.#

I'm Ikuma Yamashita (Native name: 山下 生真).

I work as an infrastructure engineer at a Japanese IT company.

During my studies, I majored in mechanical engineering with a focus on embedded systems. From there, I expanded my interests and started creating system programs and web applications as a hobby. You can get a sense of my skill level from the projects featured on this website.

I’m passionate about the Rust programming language and actively contribute to various open-source projects.

Another hobby of mine is digital illustration, which I’ve been practicing since middle school. I’m also considering creating a page on this website to showcase some of my artwork.

Thank you very much for visiting!
