I am a roboticist, technician, and industrialist [ 1 2 3 4 5 ] interested in the following industries:
- Robotics (autonomous, transportation, logistics, security, etc)
- Mechanical, Electrical, and Electronics Engineering
- Bioscience, Biotechnologies, and Bioinformatics

I am the founder of DNX Industries, an industrial robotics laboratory developing modular robotic platforms.
Previously, I was the co-founder of IdeaDrops Inc, MxMedia, and Activity+ Analytics.
During this time, I have privately worked as a managing technician or security consultant for a number of hardware development and repair shops.
