NICE TO MEET YOU

I'm Stephen Cross

With a rich 30-year journey in website development behind me, I recently ventured into the fascinating realm of physical computing. The moment I bridged the gap between software, intricate electronic circuitry, and tangible, physical actions, it was a revelation. This experience opened my eyes to a vast world brimming with learning opportunities and limitless potential.

The path to becoming a maker, innovator, or enthusiastic hobbyist is open to everyone. Whether it's crafting basic home automation systems or delving into the complexities of autonomous robotics, it all starts with mastering the fundamentals. I invite you to embark on this exhilarating journey with me.
