Electrical engineering graduate specializing in analog, mixed-signal, and RF design, driven by a desire to build electronic systems at a fundamental level. My practical foundation started early, evolving from childhood Legos to manual trades before I discovered hardware design at age 16. This hands-on background instilled a deep appreciation for craftsmanship and taught me to view engineering as both a strict technical discipline and an art.
Today, I bridge the gap between theory and functional hardware by designing independent projects across audio circuitry, telecommunications, and embedded systems. I approach every build with meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to continuous improvement through iterative design. At my core, I value hard work, practice, and my family, whose support has shaped my growth and remains the driving force behind my engineering career.
