I am a lifelong learner with a passion for emerging technologies
I have always been tinkering with electronic hardware and software. This hobby and ongoing learning experience continued out of college and I began working in a web design shop, which in turn led to me starting my first business, BrainTwins. I solve creative problems with clients by utilizing high end software and hardware. Projects ranging from educational augmented reality games for children, interactive art gallery pieces, music videos, to product demos, all have fulfilled my love for solving creative problems and my intense desire to always learn new skills.
