Currently @ AMD. James and I work on the same floor / side of the bldg. I'm part of the CAD team supporting the designers with AMD's processor designs. I specialize in static timing analysis (verify a chip is running to spec, eg 1 GHz) and thermal analysis (verify the current flow (= heat) through localized parts of the chip do not change device characteristcs and or long term reliability of the part).
However, I'm at the cusp of a career change and was accepted to UT's Alternate Entry MS Nursing program, but have deferred my start til Summer 2014. I hope to work in the ER and/or ICU, where I currently volunteer at both @ Brackenridge.
Btw, other interests include sailing/windsurfing (i used to be a collegiate sailor), salsa dancing (teach, promote, run events), and brazilian jiu jitsu (just a blue belt).
