About
I am an electrical and computer engineer and a recent graduate of Olin College of Engineering (class of 2024).
I am interested in renewable energies, embedded systems, logic design, non-classical computing methods, and much more.
Besides engineering work, I am an avid musician, synthesist, producer, audio engineer, and outdoorsman.
This website contains a portfolio of my recent projects and experiences as an engineer and musician, as well as my contact information.
