Q: What inspired you to become an engineer? Were you always interested in technology? If so, why? If not, when did you become interested and why?

A: I’ve been fascinated with technology and its applications for as long as I can remember.

Growing up, I used to love reading science books and even encyclopedias. I also was obsessed with my grandparents’ tools, which I would use to enable my experiments – I even built my first computer before I had turned 10.
