User Profile: Brandon

My name is Brandon and I am an Applications Engineer at Pololu. I am part of the technical support team and help create product pages for the website, as well as design mechanical components. I post on the Pololu forum as BrandonM. I have a degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Nevada, Reno.

I like hands-on activities like building robots, but I also enjoy many sports, playing guitar, boating, and fishing.
