My background consists of both software and hardware engineering experiences, including work with electronic circuits and oscilloscopes, embedded systems and assembly-level programming, high-level web applications, frontend UI design with CSS and dynamic rendering frameworks, and RESTful API implementation
I have provided solutions to basic household technical problems for numerous people in my local area. My expertise includes computer networking, computer hardware installation and repair, product recommendations, troubleshooting, and system performance improvement.
I make graphics and videos for personal enjoyment, class projects, and online communities. My works range from informational presentations to cinematic short films.
Since day one, I've resided in the lovely city of Des Moines, IA.
Surrounded by farm fields, prairies, forests, and waterways, I've enjoyed
calling Iowa home, despite the extreme weather conditions. I chose to attend
Iowa State University for my undergraduate studies in Computer Engineering
due
to the exceptional engineering programs and significant financial assistance
provided.
I've enjoyed meeting my living community, sharing meals, and
learning new concepts related to my field of choice. I additionally
auditioned
for and made the ISU Drumline, a section of the Iowa State University
Cyclone Football "Varsity" Marching Band (ISUCF'V'MB, see my Activities page for more). This group has
significantly shaped my identity as a Cyclone and I can't wait to continue
my
membership for the remainder of my college experience.
As an owner of a startup, I have aquired knowledge in euntrepeneurship and have developed project management skills such as organizing and distributing tasks, monitoring progress, and keeping an eye on the end goal. And of course, I have several years of software engineering under my belt. See my resume for all of my skills or follow me on LinkedIn.
In addition to my pursuit of computers, I thoroughly enjoy music and digital creation. I have participated in numerous musical ensembles for both school and church. Now, with my enjoyment of tech, I appreciate a good video game. In fact, I have especially become fond of Microsoft's newest Flight Simulator, allowing players to simulate real-life plane models and fly across the world with fellow online pilots. For many years, I've become involved in numerous online communities that host events and group flights, making something as niche as a flight simulator a whole lot of fun!
Since I was a kid, I couldn't get my hands on enough keyboards and mice to supplement my curiosity. I have always been fond of technology, no matter the scale, and want the industry to be a key component of my future. Technology provides solutions to problems big and small, and with this comes the ability to make a difference in even just one person's life. By continuing to progress my collaborative projects and achievements in school, I can maximize my contributions to my goal of improving the human condition through technology at my current stage in life, long before I achieve a degree. I desire to make a positive impact through innovative products in a small company to run my successful one. Shortly, I hope to continue seeking out opportunities to use my passion and innovate one corner of the world at a time. This world of ours needs game-changers and innovators. I yearn to be one of them, not for my benefit but the benefit of mankind.
