Major: Electrical Engineering
Minor: Computer Science
I go by Joseph, and I am the first of my immediate family to get a degree! This is my last semester (wish me luck).
I am majoring in electrical engineering because it makes up much of what is around us, and my family is full of linemen/electricians for generations. I chose to seek a computer science minor because I have always been interested in programming.
- I am willing to learn any language required for the project, but I know the following...
- C++
- C
- A small amount of Swift (used to create software over a summer internship)
- Taking a course this semester using Python, and another using C#, but no prior experience
- Two of my hobbies:
- Scuba Diving
- Quadcopter racing/aerobatics
I have been involved in scuba since 2015, and have gone as far as decompression diving up to 160 ft. in depth - don't do this. Link for an interesting dive on the USS Oriskany.
Link for an example of the type of drone flying that I'm interested in.
I hope some of you to get into simple drone flying, but I need to warn you that quadcopters like the one in the video here can be inherintely dangerous, especially for your fingers.
