Passionate about learning and making robots move. To code robots navigation, guidance, control and planning is what I'd like to do for the rest of my life.Since I was a kid I was a true math knowledge black hole. I went everywhere with my pokémon math operations book just for fun. Classes weren't enough for me, I wanted to know all there was to know about math. That led me to win over 10 medals in regional and national math and physics contests when I was in school.In the beggining of college, I discovered the power of programming and electronics. That new passion drove me to get a programming teacher assistant scholarship, programming scientific initiation position and to enter in the FSAE electronic team. During college I also developed a lot of the "maker" abilities, such as 3D printing, CNC routing and how to work with glass and carbon resign, acrylic, steel and wood plates...However, it took me till the last year of college to discover what I'd be doing till now, ROBOTICS! It basically merged all things that I like the most: control, programming, electronics, prototyping... Thankfully I'm able to work with it. In my masters, I want to prototype a robot from scrath, to write or at least review every piece of code, mechanical and electrical aspects of it, so I can have a better understanding of how everything is done.
