15 Years of Building Cool Stuff
I fell in love with hardware when I was 8 years old. Starting by collecting PCBs from old toys, I quickly moved into soldering motors to other small electronics. At 14, I used a 555 timer to create my first blinking LED, which was soon followed by a passion for robotics. Firmware followed soon after with Arduino and Raspberry Pi. I've been fortunate to have been able to turn my hobby into a career, and I've been working in the field of electrical engineering for over 5 years.
Past & Present
Hardware Work Experience
Between startups and large corporations, I've been fortunate to work with a variety of technologies and industries. Along the way, I learned a lot about what it takes to be a successful engineer from the great teams I've worked with, and I'm always looking for new challenges.
