A few words about me:
I was born in 2000 and I was interested in electronics and programming ever since I was young. During my kindergarten years, I started learning how to turn on some flashlight bulbs with a battery and wires. I learned how parallel and serial connections affect the intensity of the light of these bulbs.
During primary school, I started learning how integrated circuits (analog at the beginning, then more complex digital ICs) work, and how to use them. At this time, I built a basic alarm system, which made a light turn on and an alarm sound until the "disable alarm" button was pressed, when the given object (for example a phone) was moved from its top.
I started programming during my primary school years when my IT teacher discovered, that I'm much more interested in his subject than the others. I started programming using C# language and I use this programming language almost every day in many different projects. After I learned the basics of programming in primary school and at home in the afternoons, my IT teacher introduced me to a programmer who gave me university notes related to algorithms and programming, and he showed me some websites where I found useful things to learn. In addition, if I had some questions, or difficulty during this long learning process, he sent me detailed explanations to help.
After learning the basics of a few programming languages, I got my first Arduino development kit, which made new opportunities for me. At this point in time, I already won some model-building competitions, and using my skills in programming and crafting things, my projects improved a lot. I built new things, for example, a smart-flowerpot, which was able to alert me when to water the plants inside it, and I built a phone controlled smart-home model using one of my previous models.
During my high school years, this enthusiasm has continued, and its still ongoing, but I am now working on more meaningful, and complex projects, from a 3D printer built out of electronic waste, through self-made precision CNC machines and self-driving exploring robots to network scanner software.
I have a B2 level complex English language exam, with a high level of IT and engineering related professional English knowledge, what I use day by day because most of the scientific publications and datasheets of electronic components are written in English. Moreover, I wrote the descriptions and datasheets in English as the primary language for many of my recent projects.
It is very important for me, to not only extend my knowledge and skills until it meets some kind of requirements but to learn as much as possible, even if it means using much more energy, going far beyond the requirements. My goal is to participate in researches that can change the world and make people's life better, even if there are so many people saying this goal is unreachable. In my opinion, there are no unreachable goals, everything is possible if we never give up.
