About Me

Hey everyone! So as a new member of Steemit, I figured I'd write a brief post introducing myself. If you couldn't already tell from my username, my name is Brandon and I just graduated from college in May with a Bachelors degree in Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering.

(I'm the one on the left and sorry for the blurry picture)

During my time at UB, I was a member and Captain of the AIAA Design, Build, Fly (DBF) Team... basically I helped to design and build a really cool RC airplane, pictured below.
For those of you who don't know, DBF is a yearly competition hosted by Cessna or Raytheon Missile Systems and is an international competition. This past year, it was held in Tucson, AZ, hence the mountains in the background. Anyways, check out their website if you want to know a little more about it and the missions this plane flew. I might even make another post dedicated to this years competition and upload a video of it flying if its something that you would like to see. Let me know in the comments!

Hobbies and Interests

So in addition to designing and building RC airplanes for my club, I also fly my own RC airplanes and quadcopters. I'm hoping to post a brief article or two about my newest airplane that I am designing and the build process that goes along with it... just have to finish the preliminary design work, but here is a sneak peak of that:

While I may be a huge nerd, I am also extremely into health and fitness. I enjoy working out 4-5 times a week, running 2-3 times a week, and eating healthy. I'm also a huge Big Brother fan (the show on CBS ) and watch it every summer. With the new season starting tomorrow, I'm thinking I might do a weekly review of the game and make predictions on what I think certain players will do or what will happen.

Let me know if you think any of these are ideas worth writing about in the comments! If you enjoyed or might enjoy anything I mentioned above, give me a follow.
