About Brandon Cedarblade

I keep pressing the space bar, but I\'m still on Earth.\" I love to learn. From building with legos to microcontrollers, I\'ve always been curious about the world around me and beyond (see: goal to go to space). I view learning as an opportunity to understand the successes of others and to create success for myself. I have a passion for exploring the unknown and this curiosity has led me to pursue a second bachelor\'s degree in Computer and Electrical Engineering. I have an interest in robotics, automation, technology, and solving complex problems that span the manufacturing and aerospace industries.From the first time I saw a Roomba in action,(with the risk of sounding lazy) I have loved trying to automate anything I can. From dealing with snow and ice during Wisconsin winters to replacing my least favorite chore (lawn mowing). I\'ve had the great opportunity to be involved in several projects involving automation hardware and programming at UW-Stout, including building a functional automated salt spreader to help get rid of icy driveways and sidewalks. Additionally, joining the aerospace industry with my Internship as an Embedded/FPGA Cyber Intern with The Aerospace Corporation, I\'ve been able to gain exposure the world of cybersecurity while working on various projects related to low SWaP (size, weight, and power) devices.Outside of automation, I love exploring and learning new code, chemistry and material science, biomedical research, investment strategies, and finance. Like I said, I love to learn: C, C++, Python, Java, Verilog, FPGA’s -(Zync, Zync Ultrascale, Artix 7), Arduino, Raspberry Pi, MATLAB, Vivado, Vitis, Yocto, QEMU, Altium Designer, OrCAD/PSPICE, SOLIDWORKS/CAD, Linux, TCP, UDP, Data Hashing, RSA, 3D Printing/Additive Manufacturing, PCBs : IoT Engineer | Cybersecurity Engineer | Embedded Design Engineer | Research and Development Engineer | Sheldon Cooper \'!
