Hello! I’m Pablo, I’m an electrical engineer from Costa Rica currently enrolled in the Global Medical Innovation-Master of Bioengineering program at Rice.

One thing I’ve made that I’m proud of is designing and creating is a stereo audio equalizer and amplifier; it’s not very complex but it’s one of the first times I was ever able to put the things I learned from my undergrad to use, so it became a good memory.

I’ve always wanted to learn how to use the equipment and gain the maker mindset to fabricate solutions to everyday problems and to use this knowledge to the benefit of people by working in the MedTech field.

Throughout this course I hope to get more comfortable around machine shop equipment and gain experience in design and fabrication of items and things like material choices.
