About me:
in college, I wanted to do something engineering related, but not anything in particular
Decided to go to an internship in Taiwan with no idea what energy modeling is. Loved it and thought it was a great way to contribute to society without strictly going into bio-mechanical stuff
Since then, I am working for energetics as an intern learning more about energy modeling.

(Basically, a conference where brilliant people and students get together and present their ideas on netzero buildings, new inventions and methods to model energy more efficiently)
