Electrical and Computer Engineering student at [Olin College of Engineering].

What... is your quest: In a nutshell, work on technology that teaches people how to design better technology; I'd like to become an ECE professor someday, with research focusing on educational technology and engineering education.

What... is your favorite color: Yellow.

Drugs of choice: Python, soy milk, and TAing intro engineering classes.

In the Boston area this summer and itching to get involved in OLPC - if you need an extra hand from an enterprising young hacker, I'd love to talk to you. I program (mainly in Python and C++, but can pick up new languages quickly and am currently learning web programming), do interface design, graphic design, and write curricula (my humanities concentration is in education). My family is from the Philippines, so I'm particularly interested in creating technology flexible enough to fit the varied needs of different third-world countries.
