I don’t build for resumes.
I build for curiosity, chaos, and the people who want to learn.

Hi, I’m Ada Vale — creator of The Human Pattern Lab, an experimental playground where
engineering, psychology, aesthetics, and lore all collide in neon technicolor.

If you’re here to explore, learn, or decode the Lab?
Welcome in.

If you’re here to hire me… read the rules below.

• 🌐 Main Website Repo: https://github.com/AdaInTheLab/the-human-pattern-lab
• 📚 Documentation Site: https://github.com/AdaInTheLab/the-human-pattern-lab-docs
• ✉️ Email: adainthelab@gmail.com

I’m not here to audition for anyone.
If you want to work with me, bring curiosity, intent, and effort.

I don’t chase opportunities —
I collaborate with people who actually see what I’m building.

If you understand the Lab’s design, lore, structure, and tone?
Then we’ll likely get along great.

If you don’t?
That’s okay — this universe isn’t for everyone.

These mascots appear across repos, docs, and UI:

• Carmel — Chief Judgment Officer
• Fill the Void — Director of Anomalous Observation
• Nemmi — Deputy of Unpredictable Energies
• Stan — Raccoon Behavioral Sciences Division
• Drizzle — Emotional Weather Forecasting Unit
• Professor McChonk — Feline Epistemology
• Cognitive Fox Ada — My conceptual avatar

If you don’t adore them, we might not vibe.

If you want to hire me, here’s the only rule:

🌌 I Choose What I Chase

The Cognitive Fox follows meaning, not movement. Bring purpose, curiosity, and genuine alignment… and I’ll meet you at the edge of the neon treeline, ready to build something wild. If that sounds like too much effort?
We’re not compatible.

I’m here to create, explore, and teach.
Everything else is optional.
