Newly minted Master of Information (Management and Systems) at the gates of tech. Trained as an electrical engineer I bring with me a keen analytical mind and curiosity for how things work. At the school of information I have explored the complex interplay of society and technology, but mostly I have built a bevy of web based projects. I am excited about the tremendous power of internet technology and how quickly ideas can be designed, built, tested and refined. I am inspired by scientific method and user-centered design. Specialties: Building rich web based applications UI design/development User-centered design Rapid Prototyping Physical computing Design of electrical systems for buildings
