01 / About — the hats I wear

Engineer, maker, leader — one person

Most of my work lives where hardware meets software, but I've never met a product layer I didn't want to learn. Here's the toolbox and the track record.

02 / Projects — proof of work

15 projects, from silicon to shipped

A sample of things I've built or am building — each one touched across hardware, firmware and the interface to the outside world.

P-DOT 01

Low power long range LoRaWAN device targeting sub-1uA sleep current with fast wake up and modern Rust based firmware

KiCAD PCB Design Rust Embassy STM32 LLCC68
Sound Blaster 02

The goal of this project is to make a sound gun that can 'shoot sound' at a target, and have the ability to modulate frequency and amplitude. Meaning, I have the ability to play a sound from a distance

KiCAD PCB Design C/CPP ESP32 STM Controls
OPERATION AIRPLANE 03

The purpose of this project is to see if I can go from nothing but simulations and design concept to fully functional airplane + controller + auto-controls

KiCAD PCB Design C/CPP ESP32 STM LoRa
Bounce Back 04

Modular battery pack, designed to help with the PeterSpec V2 project

PCB KiCAD Battery Management
PULP & PEEL 05

PCB design, and codebase for competing in the UCF GNOR race

KiCAD PCB Design C/CPP RP2040 GNSS Magnetism
Blast-Shield 06

In house made PCB design to help with JET motor control and safety

KiCAD PCB Design C/CPP ESP32 MQTT
