About Me

I am a Senior Design Engineer with over 15 years of experience bridging the gap between hardware and software. I handle the full product lifecycle—from mechanical CAD and PCB design to firmware and app development. Outside of engineering, I'm a father of two who attempts to rock climb and play ultimate frisbee in my (theoretical) free time.
