Hello Everyone! You can call me Bluepixel!
I live in the west coast and graduated with a B.A.Sc with a formal academic background in Electrical Engineering. I have worked at companies such as Research in Motion and Microsoft Corporation as a Product Marketer, Software Developer, Software Tester and Hardware Engineer. My most recent job was working as a consultant Engineer working on site at Microsoft for the Web Services and Content team that manages the metadata and content behind Microsoft’s Windows Media Center.
I am extremely organized and have a great passion for technology and design. In my spare time, I enjoy going on photo excursion with friends, climbing, bouldering, coding, traveling, cooking, twittering, reading, blogging, going to concerts to support local bands and trying out new things…like brainstorming project ideas on my personal white board (seriously!).
I love to design new engineering projects from scratch, perform analysis on various design and tackle down risks as they come across my path. I have a record in working smart, hard, and getting the job done!
I’m currently working for a Merger & Acquisition team where my key task is Program Managing the on boarding a Skype employees into Microsoft Corporation.
