My pursuit in Electrical Engineering was fueled by passion with audio. Since I was young I have always wondered about audio devices such as receivers, crossovers, amplifiers, DACS, and speakers. This lead into many years in custom audio for home theaters and car audio. Where I designed and built theaters. SPL boxes, filters, and SQ boxes.During College I took an internship at the company called Inovar. Inovar is known for taking contracts with other companies and manufacturing boards for companies. At this internship I was put into the L-3 department. There I helped keep the area clean, test procedures up to date, test equipment calibrated, golden boards working, set up test stations, organize data, and I even got to dabble with board debugging. I learned a lot about radio communications, debugging boards, working with technicians, and how a company operates. One of the test stations that I helped set up and work on was called the KU down converter.In 2014 I received my Extra Class ham radio license. My current call sign is AF7JG, and i plan to make ham radio my secondary hobby. The main reason why I got into ham radio is because it delves into my curiosity of antennas and EM wave propagation, and I know several people who wanted me to get into the hobby as well. So far I think getting my ham radio license was a great experience. I also find it interesting and fun being able to apply some of the concepts and theories that I have learned at college on ham stations.My current interests include electromagnetics, signal processsing. software, and acoustics.I currently work at Hill Air Force Base as an Electronics Engineer working on real time software for F-16 jets.

Listed skills include Testing, Test Equipment, Assembly Language, Matlab, and 20 others.
