Who I Am

I was born before the Internet era, have grown around old russian mil-spec electronic components, listened to tube radios and have develloped a passion towards analog electronics. I love playing with High-Voltage, when I was 12, I built my first ZVS Mazzilli driver and scared the crap out of my parents. I've built Geiger counters, robots, and even colaborated with the Romanian Aerospace Asociation in order to build a sensor array that went up 25 miles into the atmosphere.

Why I'm on Hackaday.io

I've been a Hackaday user for more than 9 years so I thought I might share some of my projects with the internet.
