  • Electronic Engineering Interest

    Electrical Energy

    Now Im not going to go into a whole long rant about how this all works but its always fascinated me to be able to wield a force of nature that is so versatile in its form and nature and so prevalent in its role in giving life to the natural world around us.

    So with electric, comes also, plasma and magnetism and eventually high energy radiation like the present RF waves like radio, GPS, and WIFI.

    Electrical and Computer, and Radio Pioneers

    Now I never had celebrities or athletes as role models, but there a few notable people whos genius has echoed through our era in the field I am fascinated in. My Role models –

    James Clerk Maxwell
    6.13.1831 – 11.5.1879

    “Father of Electromagnetism”

    Hedy Lamarr
    11.9.1914 – 1.19.2000

    “Mother of Wifi”

    Ada Lovelace
    10.12.1815 – 27.11.1852

    “Grandmother of Computing”

  • A couple of my pets

    Loki

    Loki is on the left, he looks like a russian blue but may be a gray domestic short hair, he is 3 years old and is kinda intimidating and scary, even though he is often even tempered and loyal.

    Hilo

    Hilo is the smaller black cat, about 1 and a half years old. He is an agent of chaos. When he isnt zooming around the house and climbing the curtains or screen, he is found following me everywhere, often supervise everything you do and will learn the best places to hide when its time to go back inside the house.

  • Gardening

    While I dont have the best amount of space to set up a garden, nor the time inbetween work, the kid, the cats, school, and video games ofcoarse. But I still try to grow everything I can get my hands on. From seed bombing native wildflowers, or re growing kitchen veggie scraps. (Carrots, garlic, celery, pineapple, chilli seeds) I often do it just because, not that I expect any kind of yield. This hobby has filled my house with random types of ptants and herbs all over my patio and home.

    Gardening Proficiencies

    Garden Proficiencies

    Within my Garden proficiencies, I would claim these ones I have some skill with. I have planted many plants and have failed many times, but out of the majority, I have been able to keep these ones alive the longest and regularly harvest from them.

    As we live in the hot desert region of California with a zone climate of 10a, many things will not thrive in this heat but then again, a lot of the produce we use does, and is grown in California central valley.

    Serrano Peppers
    Corn
    Thai Birds Eye Chili
    Green Onion
    Garlic Shallots
    Basil

    Mixing Plants, and science?

    I hope to bring it to the next level someday with plant cell culture technology if I ever get the time or investments.

    This is usually involving growing plant tissue in nutrient solution for cloning or splicing or research.

  • Varied Technology Interest

    A high-tech workshop featuring 3D printers and a tablet on a desk, showcasing modern innovation.

    Technology Nerd

    As the world grows more complex, my fascination with technology has always been a thing since I was a child, I explored inside computers, eager to understand their inner workings.

    Advancing technology led me to cutting-edge tools like LIDAR, Computer Vision, Drones, 3D printing, and meta materials. While I cant chase all those fields in college at once, I do dabble with these at home.
