  Owner, manager and chief engineer of Edna Inc. which provides engineering design services for ASIC and FPGA systems. Extensive experience in all phases of ASIC design from system specification through final sign off. Including: design, verification, timing analysis and design for test (DFT). We have extensive experience with ARM-based SoC systems. Provided engineering design services for application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) and FPGA systems. Oversaw all phases of ASIC design from system specification through final sign off, including design, verification, timing analysis, and design for test (DFT). Experts in ARM architecture-based systems on a chip (SoC). - Operated Edna Inc as an authorized design center for VLSI Technology and later for Philps Semiconductors. - Technology Transition: Oversaw transition to or first-time use ARM processors and AMBA Systems on Chip (SoC) for companies of various sizes. - Training: Educated gifted professionals from other science backgrounds to be a valuable ASIC engineer within 6 months, unheard of for that level of training. - Accomplishment: Key contributor to ‘A-team’ put together by VLSI to win ASIC work back from Hewlett Packard after decade long gap. Became a key line item for renewing ASIC contracts for HP printer teams.

• Seeker

  • Jun 2016 - Present

  I am a seeker of knowledge and understanding. I undertook a journey outwards across the world and inwards to learn about myself and allow myself to live more comfortably in the world. I spent a year and a half traveling and living in South America. Most of that in and around Cusco and the Sacred Valley in Peru. A place that is now part of me. I experienced many amazing ceremonies and experiences in South America. Ayahuasca, Juachuma/Wachuma/San Pedro and other medicines. 7 days and nights fasting alone on a mountain. I also later undertook a 20-day water only fast. And above all I met and experienced some amazing people. I also got to know myself better. But that is a lifelong journey. One I am fully embarked upon and will follow for the rest of my life.
