Expertise in modeling, analyzing and designing radar systems, prototyping and implementing signal processing algorithms. Worked on a variety of radar systems spanning technologies such as pulsed-Doppler, FMCW, phased arrays, and digital beamforming. I have experience in RF and microwave disciplines along with an established skill set in programming using multiple languages such as C++ and developing with MATLAB. I'm also active on the EE but especially the DSP Stack Exchange sites: dsp.stackexchange.com/users/26009/envidia
