About
Hardware curiosity and software craft.
I studied electrical engineering at UIUC and built a path toward embedded systems because I like the point where software has to negotiate with real hardware.
My interest started with taking gadgets apart and wondering how they worked. That turned into electrical engineering, computer science, firmware, embedded Linux, and IoT systems.
Professionally, I like work that rewards precision: device behavior, low-level interfaces, testing, metrics, and the debugging path from strange symptom to durable signal.
Away from work, I like exploring trails, photographing quiet places, and playing golf. Those parts of life keep the technical side grounded.
