Meet Paul Vazquez, a young engineer who is on the road to success. Paul was one of the performers at Talent@TCC.
The Talon sat down with Paul to discuss his true passion.
Talon: What is something you do that you feel is unique or special?
Paul: I build modern PCS and modify them to be like certain incorporated DRMS. And I build modern game consoles which I upgrade them from their original state. It’s definitely a fun thing to do. I also design different electronic circuits and gadgets. A lot of them have different functions that have a lot of fun capabilities.
Talon: When did you start and how long have you been doing it?
Paul: I started around twelve years ago. I’ve been tinkering around with computers and technology for most of my life actually.
Talon: What do you enjoy the MOST about your hobby?
Paul: Well, I’ve always been kind of a tech-geek. And a math and science geek. Furthermore, just working around with the parts and everything. Also, accomplishing like a billion pieces of tech and seeing it work feels good to me. It really makes you feel that you have accomplished something advanced. Even if it was the smallest 555 LED flashing timer circuit. Which is quite simple.
Talon: What inspires you to continue to do what you do?
Paul: Level of income. It definitely is enjoyable for me.
