Scruffy. Thesis done.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>It&#8217;s been quiet for too long around here&#8230; since my last post, my thesis was accepted September 20, 2012 and I received my diploma early February 2012. The title of my thesis was &#8220;Low dimensionality spectral sensing for low cost material identification and discrimination&#8221;. It really took a lot out of me. I learned a lot about myself, and a good bit about my thesis topic. I&#8217;m still a bit gun-shy about my thesis, but slowly bits and pieces will start appearing here.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/media.mit.edu\">Media Lab<\/a> was quite a strange experience, maybe I&#8217;ll write about it. It encompassed some of both the best and worst experiences of my life. Mixed feelings..<\/p>\n<p>After graduating, I took a few months off, which gave me some time to decompress, watch some Breaking Bad, and knocked out some projects. I started working at <a href=\"http:\/\/essess.com\">Essess<\/a> with <a href=\"http:\/\/philsalesses.com\">Phil Salesses<\/a>, a friend from the Lab. We&#8217;re doing some pretty interesting work, lots of interesting stuff should start appearing here shortly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s been quiet for too long around here&#8230; since my last post, my thesis was accepted September 20, 2012 and I received my diploma early February 2012.
