Well that's a complicated question to open with. How do I sum that up into a nice, neat blurb for the
|
||||
internet? I can start with some simple easy to categorize attributes, that seems to be the usual
|
||||
approach.

|

I was part of the <a rel="external" target="_blank" href="https://www.wpi.edu/">WPI</a> Class of 2017 and graduated
|
||||
with a degree in mechanical engineering. My job is completely unrelated to my degree: I work as a
|
||||
Site Reliability Engineer at <a rel="external" target="_blank" href="https://starry.com/">Starry, Inc</a>. I like
|
||||
hiking, mechanical design, and literary theory. I'm a
|
||||
<a rel="external" target="_blank" href="http://www.diabetes.org/diabetes-basics/type-1/">Type-1 Diabetic</a>, I have a
|
||||
<a rel="external" target="_blank" href="https://www.solidworks.com/sw/support/797_ENU_HTML.htm">SolidWorks Professional Certification</a>,
|
||||
and have accidentally flipped over very-nearly every time I've ridden in a canoe (bonus fact: I don't
|
||||
like canoes very much).

Oof, and I thought the last section was difficult. I don't like talking about myself, in case that wasn't
|
||||
obvious. Shoot, that's more of a personal detail, should it have gone in the last section? Whatever,
|
||||
moving on.

My interests are somewhat varied and changing all the time, but consistently my main interests are in
|
||||
solving problems and learning about how other people solved problems. I like the
|
||||
<a rel="external" target="_blank" href="https://www.python.org">Python</a> programming language, the history of 19th and
|
||||
20th centuries (particularly related to industry), and figuring out how to keep older cars working well
|
||||
past their intended retirement date. I also like books! The
|
||||
<a rel="external" target="_blank" href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/46654.The_Foundation_Trilogy">Foundation Trilogy</a>
|
||||
(Isaac Asimov),

||||
<a rel="external" target="_blank" href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4671.The_Great_Gatsby">The Great Gatsby</a>
|
||||
(F.Scott Fitzgerald), and

||||
<a rel="external" target="_blank" href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13047567-chaos-walking">Chaos Walking</a>
|
||||
(Patrick Ness) are some of my favorites.

Ok this is the easy one, I do lots of things! I volunteer with
|

<a rel="external" target="_blank" href="https://www.mindsmatterboston.org/">Minds Matter Boston</a> as a youth mentor and give
|
||||
unnecessarily enthusiastic tours at the
|
||||
<a rel="external" target="_blank" href="https://waterworksmuseum.org/">Boston Metropolitan Waterworks Museum</a>. I also
|
||||
work on a few open source software projects, try to travel when and where I can, and constantly find new things to
|
||||
<s>break</s> fix on my car.
