About Me

I’m currently a mechanical engineer working in research and development at Stereotaxis with diverse interests that all center around one thing: technology. I was an extremely curious child and as far as I can remember, I have been a tinkerer, a builder, and an explorer. My interests currently lie within the realms of aerodynamics, iOS and web development, product design, 3D printing, and automated hydroponic systems. When I'm not reading or working on my projects I enjoy spending time with friends, my lovely wife, and my two puppers, Bentley and Joey.
