About

I'm an engineer living and working in New York City. I've always loved learning and problem solving and am interested in all things engineering, mathematics, and programming. I was recently a Staff Engineer at 3DBio Therapeutics. Previously I spent seven years leading design and in-house manufacture of novel camera support equipment at MYT Works.
