I spend my time building new and exciting systems, all the while finding innovative methods to solve the problems I come across. I take joy in making different machines work with each other, whether they like to or not. I have had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of systems, including ranging sensors, motor control systems, motion capture stages, multi-projector displays, mobile platforms, and database systems.
