Background

About Chris Lijoi

I am a recent graduate of Drexel University with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering and a double minor in Computer Science and History. While in high school I became interested in engineering after joining a local robotics team and becoming team captain by my senior year. Also during my senior year I became the Senior Patrol Leader (SPL) for my troop and obtained the rank of Eagle Scout. Before attending college, I initially wanted to go into the field of Electrical Engineering. However, that all changed when I took my first computer programming course where I realized that this is what I wanted to do. Now I can firmly say that I am happy with my decision to switch. I have enjoyed learning about not just circuits but also about micro controllers and various programming languages, and I am always eager to learn about something new. When my time at Drexel comes to a close, I want to make microcontrollers and IoT my field. I find that working with that is a perfect combination of my love for hardware and for software.
