Areas Chris Kelvin is Knowledgeable in:

I have a very wide knowledge base from my college endeavors however my emphasis is in engineering. I have worked on several practical engineering projects from building a rocket to test an experiment in a specific flight regime, to designing circuits on field programmable gate arrays to solve electrical engineering problems. I'm also very interested in programming and finance and have some experience in both. I'm constantly on top of the latest trends and information in the technology and science fields and am always interested in the connections that different disciplines make.

Techniques Chris Kelvin Uses:

To solve new problems first and foremost I think about all of the real life engineering problems I have worked on and how the new problem relates. I believe that new inspiration and creativity stems from practical experience. Once a plan of attack has been established hard work and dedication are critical. A methodical and clearly laid out engineering plan is also very important. With this process clearly defined a methodical solution to any problem can be reached.
