[…computer engineer?]
A.k.a. my day job – mostly on the management side though. Engineering is my life:
- I have a Master of Engineering degree in electrical engineering and a baccalaureate degree in electronics and engineering technology,
- an active membership in the Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers (better known as the IEEE),
- and love mathematics and statistics – areas where engineering thrives!
[…professional tutor?]
Yes – mainly in mathematics and statistics; I have over 12 years of tutoring experience.
[…math geek?]
That’s me! I’ve loved mathematics since I was a kid; even now, I find calculus and statistics especially fascinating.
[…a concourse of research?]
Yes indeed:
con·course \ˈkän-ˌkȯrs, ˈkäŋ-\
