Hi, I'm Alek. 👋

By day I'm an architect manager. By night I build the apps I wish existed.

I've written code for years, mostly SQL and JavaScript for work tools: forms, data, dashboards, the useful stuff nobody shows off. Nemui Studios is where I get to build the fun stuff. NemuiTV started because I wanted a TV home screen that showed my apps instead of ads. AI Mascot started because I kept losing track of which AI window needed me, and thought: what if a little pixel dragon just told me?

When I'm not building, I'm gaming: Monster Hunter, Nine Sols, Hollow Knight, Pokémon, and many more. I'm a big fan of the pixel look, which is probably obvious by now.

Why "Nemui"? It means sleepy in Japanese, and for years that was me. I'd work 10 to 12 hours, come home, play video games, and get maybe 3 or 4 hours of sleep. I'm a lot better about it now, and I don't work nearly as many hours, but the name stuck and I've used it online ever since. 🌙
