Hello!

I love watching Bill's informative videos and thought maybe this community he mentions is worth dipping my toes in.

I am relatively new to electronics and making, I dabbled in high school and while pursuing my degree in Computer Science, but I stopped because of life. I graduated college and built a semi-successful sales career for the last 15 years and regretfully never got into a technical field. Now I'm about to be considered "midlife" with no apparent way to transition into a career I could be passionate about, so I took up the hobby of hobbyism to fill that void. 

In my basement workshop in Ohio (USA), I've purchased a few SBCs, MCUs, kits, modules, and a 3D printer. Now, I'm loving pursuing my hobby in my spare time between feeding the baby or working on the house. 

A few of the projects I'm working on or planning on working on:

• A pan-tilt directional antenna to determine if radio signals can be visualized (an update to an old proof of concept project from college in 2006 using a Pringles can)
• A triple lens handheld camera that outputs 3D gifs with a RPi and FFMPEG
• A game controller with configurable sensitive capacitive touch thumb controls
• A few other ideas rattling around the ol' noggin. 

Thanks for reading and I'll see you in the comments!
