What Am I?
Hi, I’m Abdul-Hameed. Mechatronics engineer ‘25 with interests spanning medical mechatronics, Islamic psychology & psychotherapy, chiropractic, design, language learning (Korean, Chinese, Spanish), being Spiderman, software development, personality studies, digital productivity, medical statistics, and data science (yeah, crazy, I know).
I’m particularly interested in research and academia and believe being interdisciplinary in today’s complex world can provide invaluable insights and lead to innovative solutions.
In my free time, I:
- maintain After Hours where I shares how-to guides, personal insights, and tech explorations.
- ‘m fixing a typo on this site.
- probably in another rabbit hole on the internet.
- reading the 20+ books and hundreds more papers in my library.
- about to break my laptop for the nth time because I’m “testing something out.”
- speaking Korean or Chinese to people who don’t understand a word of it.
Good times.
