I have been living in cork for 1 year now. I play guitar, do photography, sketching, and watch a lot of Netflix ;). I am a big fan of sherlock holmes and use the same methods of deductions for my science problems sometimes (well almost).
I love cats and at one time I had 4 white cats and a big black cat who never would let me do my work. I miss them here in cork.

As of now, my work involves designing a wireless communication system – which includes a transmitter and a receiver.
My specification is on chipless and battery-less antennas – ( For Ex. which means that you can have a sticker of on your hand which can work as an antenna in future to tell your mobile device what your temperature is 🙂 )
I am using a similar technique to study the health of cows because animals need health care too, don’t they?

My Typical Day
My work involves a lot of reading and software work. After I create a design on the computer, I can send it to manufacturing and test it in our laboratory at Tyndall.
