Research & Development for MH Electric Motor & Control Corporation.

What I've done, and Where I started: Team member of HaloDev, a development group of reverse-engineers for the Xbox franchise Halo, towards the pursuit of creating a fan-made Map/Tag editor. My duties: Reverse engineering the tag format, documentation, and testing the limits of Bungie's Online Matchmaking security.

What I do now: Spearheading a complete (Low-Power Wireless Sensor Network) Machine Condition Monitoring System. (what a mouthful...) Including: Server setup, front-end design, back-end design, Web API, database config, hardware design, firmware development... you name it; I had a hand in it.

Skillset: QBasic, Visual Basic, VB.NET, C, C++, Java, Python, HTML, Javascript, PHP, MySQL, TypeScript, Angular ~1.5, NodeJS, D3JS, Linux, Assembly. Many more than is acceptable for a short list, AKA anything I can get my grubby hands on. Read-as: I love computer information systems, and I try to absorb as much knowledge related to any system as I can possibly muster.

Flaws: I don't have a normal sleep schedule. I can be pedantic. I am stubborn.

Hopes & Dreams: To have any part of bringing this world into a state of post-scarcity, for the simple-yet-ultimate benefit of all mankind. To continue learning, always.

Thanks To: Every teacher. Anyone who has ever created a tutorial, spent time on IRC tutoring/explaining/revealing new systems to myself or others. The focused individuals who take precious time out of their day to sign onto Stack Exchange and share some golden packets of knowledge.
