Bachelor student · Automation and Intelligent Systems · NTNU
Profile
Engineering student who likes building things that actually run, the mechanics, the electronics and the control code that ties them together. Right now I'm a teaching assistant at NTNU and president of MAKE NTNU, one of Norway's largest student driven makerspaces. Between a CNC router built from salvaged parts, a couple of web tools, a year in the Armed Forces and years of volunteering, I've gotten used to taking a project from an idea to something that works. Looking for a role in automation, robotics or mechatronics.
