Who I Am
-
- 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 WPI 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 Starry, Inc. I like
- hiking, mechanical design, and literary theory. I'm a
- Type-1 Diabetic, I have a
- SolidWorks Professional Certification,
- and have accidentally flipped over very-nearly every time I've ridden in a canoe (bonus fact: I don't
- like canoes very much).
-
What I Like
-
- 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
- Python 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
- Foundation Trilogy
- (Isaac Asimov),
- The Great Gatsby
- (F.Scott Fitzgerald), and
- Chaos Walking
- (Patrick Ness) are some of my favorites.
-
What I Do
-
- Ok this is the easy one, I do lots of things! I volunteer with
- Minds Matter Boston as a youth mentor and give
- unnecessarily enthusiastic tours at the
- Boston Metropolitan Waterworks Museum. I also
- work on a few open source software projects, try to travel when and where I can, and constantly find new things to
- break fix on my car.
-
- Interested in volunteering in the Boston area? Both - Minds Matter - and the - Metropolitan Waterworks Museum - are looking for new volunteers! Click those links to learn how you can get involved! -
