Playing tennis and reading

As a former national-level tennis player with victories against world-ranked opponents, I still enjoy club-level matches with friends and family. Alongside this, I am an avid reader, exploring topics such as AI, quantum computing, and human behavior in recent books like 'The Coming Wave,' 'Quantum Computing,' and 'Noise: A Flaw in Human Judgement.'
