Embedded Software Engineer | Rapid Prototyping, Designing | Gen AI

I studied Mechanical Engineering with a concentration in robotics and Computer Science with a focus on embedded systems at Northwestern University (ranked #9 in national universities, 8% acceptance rate). I have spent much time using C, C++, CircuitPython, and MicroPython to program various ARM, PIC, and AVR (Arduino) microcontrollers. I also have extensive experience in data analysis and dynamic system modeling via Python. My preferred CAD modeling program is Fusion 360, and I own both FDM and SLA 3D printers for rapid prototyping. As of late I have been serving as Product Marketing Manager of AI at a SaaS company, where I have project managed the early adopter program of our latest generative-AI powered features, therefore accruing plenty of experience in translating customer needs to technical AI requirements. I love a challenge, and I have an affinity for solving problems with unique and effective solutions. I am a believer that most people could greatly benefit from approaching issues from an engineering perspective, but I also love to exercise strategic business thinking, so if you have a problem relating to STEM, either for a hobby, class, or for a potential product prototype, I'd love to work with you to solve it.
