(dhx)ECE & Applied Math @ Vanderbilt
I'm a sophomore studying ECE & Applied Math at Vanderbilt (class of 2028), with a focus on hardware - FPGA design, RF and microwave, PCB design, and 3D CAD/packaging. I love building things that solve problems using electronics and elegant mechanical design.
In my free time, I enjoy cooking all types of food and learning about specialty coffee and tea. I also make custom furniture using computer-based technologies.
