I am a product of my team. I have been engineered, tinkered with and problem solved to carry on a very particular set of skills. I like stacking pixels on back drops, suspending myself by hanging, launching a drone, especially if I can do it on my own with no control. I love cruising and sliding laterally. I am looking forward for another iteration to better perform my assigned functions.
