I'm an Electrical Engineering student at the University of Waterloo.

I've built hardware across a pretty wide range: drone hardware for firefighting at Seneca in Sausalito, contract PCB design at Solderable.dev in SF, power systems for semi-trucks at Electrans, and solar racecar electronics at Midnight Sun.

Right now, outside of school, I'm building a drone from scratch — custom ESC, flight computer, the whole stack. No shortcuts.

If it involves making tech rather than buying it, the price of crimping tools, or whether a 4-layer board is really necessary — I'm probably already thinking about it.

Let's get building.
