Welcome to subsymbolic, home to Mia Alexiou’s projects, ideas and ruminations.

I am a freelance software engineer, specialising in mobile, iOS and Android. I have built numerous applications, large and small, including helping launch DuckDuckGo’s mobile browsers and privacy tools. I am currently directing my attention to my long-standing passions of psychology, health and data science. I especially want to understand what we need to change to foster healthier, happier communities.

I’m an avid volunteer. I love travelling and getting immersed in humanity, almost as much as fleeing it and escaping into nature. I like hiking, cycling and swimming but am especially running-obsessed - I run long distances and there is nothing I enjoy more than a day on the trails.

I need physical activity to be well. Perhaps we all do.
