Jacob Petersen/About

I am a 5th year Computer Engineering student at the University of Manitoba, and an aspiring engineer, inventor, and amateur musician. I have a particular interest in embedded systems design and enjoy tinkering with PCBs and microprocessors in my spare time, and taking things apart to see how they work. Usually, I can put them back together again.

I chose computer engineering because it is the perfect middle ground between computer science and electrical engineering, two subjects that I am equally interested in. I have a special interest in embedded systems, hardware and software design, and RF communication.

I am also an amateur radio operator, callsign VE4JPX. You can probably find me on the 15 or 20 meter bands.
