Lorenzo Nakata

My name is Lorenzo Nakata, and I’m currently pursuing a B.S. in Electrical Engineering at the University of California, Davis.

I chose this major because I’ve always been fascinated by how complex systems such as computers work at the circuit level, and I want to gain the skills to design and optimize them. My long-term goal is to work in digital systems and CPU design, where I can help create the next generation of efficient and high-performance processors.
