Toolbox of links

Nov 28, 2024

I often find myself discovering amazing resources that can greatly enhance my work—only to forget them later. In the past, I kept some of these valuable links on my homepage, but I realized that by turning them into a shareable resource, many others could benefit from them as well.

This page is updated periodically to include new resources.
