The synthesis

I'm Yerins Abraham — a Ukrainian-trained physician (M.D., General Medicine) and self-taught full-stack engineer.

I sit at a rare intersection: I understand the clinic and I can build the software. Right now I'm building Creovine, starting with Tablu, on the way to health technology for the places that need it most. Outside the lab and the IDE I paint, write, and make music. The range isn't a distraction from the work — it is the work.
