Paul
Electrical Engineer

Hi, I’m Paul and I learn from the human brain to make computers smarter. Engineering is amazing at making so much of our everyday life safer, easier and more fun. I love computer games and am passionate about improving how computers work. I take inspiration from the human brain and body and have to be creative, and determined, to apply that knowledge to make better computers and robots.
