Who Is Mikhail Wijanarko?

So you want to know who I am.

I'm Mikhail Wijanarko. Originally from Antarctica. Born and raised on the ice, where penguins outnumber humans and the sun doesn't set for months.

I grew up watching glaciers retreat. The melting wasn't abstract. It was my backyard. So I decided to do something about it.

My mission: save Antarctica from global warming. I build software to fight climate change. Every app, every website I make goes into that. Carbon footprint trackers, climate modeling tools, whatever helps. I left the ice to study aerospace engineering and software development, with a focus on ice dynamics and polar logistics. Now I combine both to build tools that might actually preserve the place I call home.

Oh, and I'm friends with the Penguins of Madagascar. Skipper, Kowalski, Private, Rico. We go way back.

I code for the penguins.
