About

I have a B.S. and M.S. in Electrical Engineering. I consider myself a tinkerer and I have considerable experience assembling and supporting test equipment. My interests lie in reverse engineering and adding new capability (both hardware and software) for existing tools.

As part of TI's support organization, I help the production sites with various problems for parametric test. This includes equipment audits, scripting new programs for file management, shaping correlation data into viewable formats (with various statistics), and configuring tester workstations. On the side, I'm assisting members of my own team with reverse engineering by verifying circuit schematics and testing redesigned parts. Sometimes, multiple projects require attention simultaneously, so this position is definitely helping me improve my time management and priority assignment skills!
