ABOUT ME

Hi, my name is Daniel! Born in Indonesia and raised in Southern California, I'm a huge fan of soccer, Star Wars, and rock music. 

Detail-oriented and adaptable, I currently spend my time designing and evaluating vehicle systems via requirement writing, modeling and simulation, building mechatronic test setups, and real-world testing.
