16Studying systems engineering with a concentration in embedded computing. Interested in
17embedded/electrical systems, firmware programming, data analytics. Recently
18completed my second firmware engineering [internship](/resume) at
19**<i>Milwaukee Electric Tool</i>** and returning for a third in 2025. Long-running
20independent technical projects include:
21
22* a [remote-controlled snow plow](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOkGwRdGm9s) (self-study in mechanical,
23 computer, electrical, and power engineering). currently working on designing battery
24 charging, motor control, and peripherals into one PCBA
25* an experiment in tiling world generation and simulation, OpenGL graphics programming
26* a stock market autotrader (basic evolutionary machine learning, GPGPU
27 programming, software development)
28
29Between hobby projects, internships, and coursework, I have experience in
30a variety of engineering and computing disciplines and have working knowledge
31with relevant technologies in both design and analysis/support capacities.
32This table isn't comprehensive, nor am I an expert in all of these, but here
33are some things of note I've worked with or had considerable exposure to:

43See the [blog](/blog) page for some technical write-ups. Outside of my
44pursuits in STEM, I enjoy running, hiking, rock climbing, playing guitar,
45cooking, and baking. I'm also [bionic](/static/images/scoliosis.png).
