"My company is not really a 'company'. It is a university setting, where I am currently pursuing a PhD in Electrical Engineering. With close proximity to downtown Chicago and vastly connected by public transport, it is a very convenient location to 'work' or 'study'. Last year, the university purchased a $3 Million electron microscope, making it the most up-to-date equipment in the USA with the ability to see atoms in high resolution. I was very excited and had the opportunities to use it."
