I'm an engineer, with some focus on signal processing and a bit of control systems. I am also a hobby photographer, and fairly avid programmer. I am the programmer of the Android game Aardvark Joe's Evil Game, and the app Psychic Tester. I am also the author of the blog, The Making of a Ham, and the photographer on PearsonArtPhoto.com.
