Electrical engineering systems
Circuits control current and voltage to perform computation, signaling, and power distribution across components and boards.
What It Is
Industrial Design is the design of products focusing on usability, aesthetics, and manufacturability. On this site, it matters because it transfers across technical, operational, and venture work instead of staying trapped in one narrow context.

Mechanical systems
Physical assemblies transfer force and motion through components such as gears and actuators under constraints of energy, friction, and material properties.
AutoCAD
AutoCAD is a software for computer-aided design and drafting.
Building with Tools and Materials
Working with tools and materials has been part of how I learn to build since junior high shop class first set me on that path.
Compute hardware systems
Physical machines such as CPUs, GPUs, memory, and storage execute instructions under constraints of heat, power, and architecture-level parallelism.
Construction Systems
Systems coordinate projects, resources, timelines, and costs in the building of physical infrastructure.
Laser & Alarm System
An early DIY security prototype — a laser beam, a photoresistor, and a circuit to trigger an alarm — built before smart home meant buying a subscription.
LED Backpack
A portable, wearable LED display built into a backpack — same individually addressable technology as the house projects, but with battery power, outdoor visibility, and durability constraints.
LEGO Builds and Models
LEGO has been part of how I think, learn, and express ideas since I was young.
Light Suit with Camera
A full-body wearable LED suit — programmable, camera-equipped, and built entirely by hand — that taught more about power budgets, wearable ergonomics, and heat dissipation than any datasheet.
