Hello and welcome to my corner;

I am Rom Sathler and I was born in Brasil in a galaxy far, far away. Well, maybe not that far. Anyway, I've came to United Kingdom in 1994 for a gap year and I've got seduced by the "London lights" and decided to progress my education in UK. My family have Europeans roots and I always wanted to cross the Atlantic to explore the old continent, so I suppose it all made sense, and as they say the rest is history.

Anyway, this is a personal site and being brasilian, leaving abroad and being home sick from time to time, I've thought it would be a good name to give it. As well as that to provide my long lost friends a way to contact me, if they want to, and to potential employees a way to get hold of my CV.

Talking about that, I am a Bachelor in Electronics and Computing Engineering from Brunel University situated in London since 2000. Once graduated I've started working for an America multinational as a software applications engineer which directed my career towards more software and less electronics. Although, its reassuring to know that I can dismember a machine's anatomy I've decided to purse, as a career, the complex understanding of the "brain of a machine", its driving force, its artificial intelligence, I mean, once decided that I wanted to be a software engineer, I then completed a Master in Computing from Manchester University in 2003.

I am now working at Malvern working as Software Engineer. My job involves developing, testing and releasing high quality software application for analytical instruments used in the characterization of a wide variety of materials. Those instruments are conceived and developed in house for various industries such as pharmaceutical, Adhesive, Aerospace, Asphalt, Biotechnology, Chemicals, Nanotechnology, Proteins, etc. ok, that is enough for now.

If you interested in knowing more, please get in touch or get my CV below. Take care and enjoy yourself in the process! All the best and Godspeed.
Rom
