About Me:
Hello, my name is Joshua Bermudez. I am a Junior at UMASS Dartmouth and an English Major. My love for reading and writing has taken a new stride as I've opened myself up to writing communities and taken excellent writing-related courses at UMASSD. Middle school me would be shocked to see how much I love it now and I'm extremely happy that everything turned out this way.
My Experience With Mechanical Repair:
Mechanical repair might seem out of the wheelhouse of a creative type with flimsy nerd arms, but it's something I've been interested in for a long time. Being the electronic repair guy for my family over the years showed me how much I like taking things apart and putting back together, as well as learning about the reasons why things are as they are. I've never had to write a guide for a repair before, but a chance to practice technical writing skills while taking apart new things sounds like a great opportunity. I'm very excited to start working and maybe put my piano fingers to use.

Hobbies and Interests:
Besides writing stories, I have a few other hobbies. The most prominent is playing piano, which I've done since I was very young. I'm also learning to draw after years of putting it off. I'm hoping to put the ideas I have in my head on the page and take more visual direction with my stories.
