Developing firmware and hardware for semiconductor fab equipment
Built cool software in the realm of networking and systems. Filed a patent!
I had previously volunteered to run installs for Mesh, but had to fit volunteering in around my restaurant job. In 2022, I received a grant from Stanford's public service center that enabled me to take a much larger role in the organization. Working at NYC Mesh full-time, I handled every responsibility from fielding customer complaints to leading major infrastructure projects. I learned constantly, and came out with a better understanding of the technologies and protocols that underlie the network, and of the high-level operations of a small nonprofit community ISP.
Cashiering, stocking, serving and other restaurant-related duties.
I spent the 2020-2021 schoolyear in an in-person "pod teacher" role which involved keeping a group of four elementary-school students on top of their remote learning schedule while filling their free time with extracurricular lesson plans, demos, and activities of my own design.
