I’m a Embedded Developer. Over the years I’ve dabbled in a lot of side projects. I have a deep interest in making IoT and smart home systems, setting up offline backups of information/Digital archiving, and alternative network technologies.</p>
<p>Contained within is my attempt to chronicle my efforts, share idea and projects, and at the end of the day, teach. I’ve always thought at some point I would like to teach. Lately I realized that there is no barrier to teaching other than what we impose on ourselves. I have a platform, It’s the internet. Please join me and feel free to ask some questions. I’d love to try to answer them, or at least point you in the right direction.</p>
<p>–John</p>
