Hi I'm Jason!

Engineer, developer, and maker.

I'm an undergraduate electrical engineering student at USF. Through creativity and versatility, I combine hardware, software, and theory to build the things I'm passionate about!

A Little About Me

I'm an undergraduate student at the University of South Florida pursuing a B.S. in Electrical Engineering. My interests are diverse, multi-disciplined, and made possible through hands-on experimentation and learning.

I love personal projects, especially those that challenge conventional applications and push boundaries between different technical domains. I work extensively with CAD software, and rapidly prototype solutions with my Prusa MK4s 3D printer.

My coding experience includes experience building embedded C++ firmware, web projects, and full-stack applications—this personal resume site being one example. My favorite place to be is at the intersection between disciplines: where mechanical constraints influence firmware design, or where web interfaces control real-time hardware systems.

Outside of academics, I spend time with music—playing guitar, piano, and exploring different genres. I'm drawn to DIY projects and tool acquisition, finding that the problem-solving mindset transfers between debugging firmware and troubleshooting household repairs.
