Resume

For over 20 years, I’ve been working with computers both professionally and in my spare time. I recently returned to school and completed my Electrical Engineering degree with a minor in Computer Engineering at University of Colorado Denver. In the past, I’ve worked across multiple technical industries and embarked on a few entrepreneurial endeavors. With my educational and occupational experiences, I hope to explore robotics and embedded programming.
