"I have a B.S. in Nuclear Engineering from UC Berkeley and a M.S. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from Santa Clara University. I have over 20+ years of work/tutoring/mentoring experience. I enjoy teaching all the subjects I have been studying and working in all my life. Engineering, Math, Physics, Sciences of all sorts, mostly nuclear and electrical engineering, which entails a lot. I have worked in Nuclear Submarines (veteran USN), Nuclear Power Plants, and in the Semiconductor Industry for well over 20 years.
During my career, I have mostly worked in the Electronics Industry helping to create and produce new Integrated Circuits, commonly known as "chips". The basic of the electronics inside all of your personal and household devices, and many other things. I spent a lot of time in the lab doing research and investigation into the performance and quality of electronics. Many, many experiments. I have used my education to its fullest extent and mentored / tutored many young people along the way.
I love math. I study it still to this day. While earning my degrees I always took more math classes than necessary. My knowledge and experience in mathematics definitely creep into the PhD level. I really enjoy math! I also love the sciences. Applied and theoretical Engineering, math, and physics. Whether it be on the nuclear submarine, at the cyclotron facility, or in the electronics lab. Science, math, physics are my life.
While working in the lab all those years, it is important to automate experiments and collect data using a suite of electronic instrument and circuits controlled by a PC. And, of course, this PC must be programmed to do this work. I have been writing laboratory software in C (and some other languages), on both, DOS/Windows and Unix based platforms, for 30 years.
If you like Science, Math, Physics, and maybe even a little history and philosophy too, then let's get together and do some learning!" less...
