Who is Alex Jones?

Face?

Me, without my beard

Me, with my beard and without any professionalism

Who?

Currently an undergraduate double majoring in Electrical and Computer Engineering. If that statement is still there after Spring 2021, either I lost drive to updating this site, or something went horribly horribly wrong.

I'm passionate about robotics and embedded hardware/software. I occasionally mentor high school robotics teams and volunteer at robotics events as I greatly benefitted from those programs. I work on a huge variety of projects in my free time, and if I'm doing my job, you can find articles on those elsewhere on the site (work in progress).

Where?

I'm from the great city of Huntsville, Alabama. Also known as Rocket City USA, Huntsville is home to a huge number of engineering firms (and cows). Of note are Marshall Space Flight Center and the Space and Rocket Center, one of which I suggest as a tourist attraction and the other only if you enjoy landmines. I currently live in Auburn Alabama while attending Auburn University(Shocker, I know).

Why?

I do this site for the sake of documentation and because I've benefitted from so many similar blogs over the years. Having straightforward examples can be invaluable to new makers. Also I have found writing these articles forces me to understand/remember what I actually did.

What?

Anything and everything I find interesting enough to write an article on goes here. I don't know what to put here, just including this section for the fulfillment of the fill 5 Ws

How?

This content is brought to you by this monstrosity, a keyboard, and some random text editor (ok fine it's vscode, don't flame me).

Professional Experience

I can't be bothered to duplicate my resume here, so just look at it here.
