Curiosity is the driving force. Imagination is the engine that propels me forward.
By layering hypotheses and exploration, I solve mysteries while discovering new ones.

Every step of this process leads to the two ultimate questions:
“How does the world work?” and “Who am I?”

Encountering questions, imagining solutions, and seeking answers—
that is the greatest joy and the very mission of my life.

And there is one absolute rule for fulfilling that mission:
“When an idea comes to mind, try it immediately!”
