Building Hardware, Writing Software, Avidly Teaching

Hey there, welcome to my website. I love learning about how the world works, and most importantly, sharing this knowledge!

Companies

I'm presently a partial owner of two different LLCs. While they're both in their infant stages, each provides a way for me to apply my knowledge toward different technical challenges that could greatly benefit society.

Robotyze LLC

I started Robotyze to contribute toward the education of future engineers.

Chisp Technologies LLC

I co-founded Chisp with the initial intent to bring communities together through physical activity.

Professional Experience

I've had to wear many hats while transforming ideas into products (and managing the details and people in between):

Project Management

Product Owner

I've had to take ownership of projects that have had multiple stakeholders and developers on them. This required me to:

  • simplify and explain complicated projects
  • estimate timelines and resources needed
  • identify risk mitigation strategies
  • reprioritize project needs quickly

Proof of Concepts

Solutions Architect

As a solutions architect, I've been responsible for the "big picture" ideas (and architecture diagrams) which were initiated as PoCs using things like:

  • Single Board Computers (Raspberry Pi, Nvidia Jetson, etc.)
  • 3D Modeling (Catia, Blender)
  • Physical Machining/Apparatus Construction
  • Microcontrollers (Arduino)
  • Wired and Programmed Various Sensors/Motors/Pumps

Developer

As a developer, I've recently been focused on creating serverless solutions in AWS via Python. I've also had to work with tools for general system integration and device configuration:

  • Servers/ETL/Databases
  • IAM/SSO Authorization
  • APIs (design and implementation)
  • Machine Learning/Computer Vision
  • HTML/JavaScript/CSS
  • Networking
