Hello! I'm Brent, online also known as TheAlgorithm476. Welcome to my site!
I live in Brakel, a town in Flanders, Belgium. I'm currently 19 years old, and currently studying Applied Computer Science at the University College of Ghent.

In my spare time, you can usually find me either coding up some new idea I got, or on my model rocket, the A-1. I'm busy with IT and rocketry during most days, and aim to one day be able to create something that is able to change the world.

I'm also the kind of person that goals that are borderline impossible, and a challenge to reach. A perfectionist at heart, I only deliver something if I'd want to use it myself.
For most of my development career, I have worked solo, making me quite an independent developer. But don't be mistaken, working in teams is no issue for me at all.

I also strongly believe that thinking out of the box is an efficient approach to problem solving, so that's what I do. Every time I encounter a bug, glitch, issue, or anything that needs to be fixed, instead of directly approaching the problem, I first try to get a birds-eye view on it, giving me the ability to get a better view of the problem, to address it more efficiently.

Aerospace Endeavours.

What am I doing when I'm not programming?

I have the ambition of starting an aerospace company. I want to be able to launch my own rockets into space, starting from a small scale. That is why I am building my own model rocket, the A-1.
The A-1 is a model rocket, built from ABS plastic, that is capable of reaching altitudes of up to 200 meters in height.

You can follow up on the progress on it on 𝕏.
