Robotics and electronics
I built an autonomous obstacle-avoiding rover: a 3D-printed chassis, an HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor for eyes, a breadboard and an Arduino. It's the most literal example of what I enjoy: hardware, software and iterating until it stops crashing into the wall.
- Guitar
- Self-taught since I was twelve. I play rhythm guitar and sing — the instrument that backs others up, not the one that shows off.
- Reading
- From Hemingway to García Lorca, with some Nietzsche in between. And yes, a self-declared Harry Potter fan.
- Writing
- I write poetry. Working an idea until it reads simply is, at heart, the same job as writing good software.
- Mixology
- I took a bartending course as a teenager and I've been inventing my own drinks since I was twenty-one. Experimenting, iterating and balancing variables until it's just right.
