Hello, and Welcome to my user page.

I'm an SDET (Software Design Engineer in Test) interested in:

  • Embedded systems
  • Power Generation
  • Blind Accessibility
  • Computer Security
  • Making the world a better place.

...looking for a side project I can be passionate about.

I bought an XO with G1G1 because I wanted to do something good in the world, and in return it turns out that I have been given the best thing for my morning commute since my mp3 player. I love it, but the battery and my inability to always be near an AC plug-in to recharge it here in the USA has made me very interested in ways I can power it on the go; I figure that if it works for me, a tribal school in a third world country will not have a problem, and needs the power more than I do.
