Hello, I'm Jasen Szekely. I'm a current student, forever learner, lifelong rocket nerd and future photonics scientist. I'd love to talk to you.
A few things about me are:
I was born in Orlando, FL in 1993.
I conceptualized a self-driving car, using GPS and "sensors", before I was 10.
My favorite TV show is For All Mankind.
I speak fluent English and a bit of Spanish.
My writings.
Often, when I deeply research a topic, I will often write a paper about it to share what I have learned.
I have a blog.
It’s where I put things I know, things I’ve learned and just things I don’t want people to have the opportunity to forget. I haven’t ever been very active on it, but hopefully that will change.
My socials.
I do not go on social media very often anymore, but if you really, really want to follow me, check me out here:

Work I'm proud of:
Florida Solar Energy Center - 2024: At Florida Solar Energy Center, I used Python Computer Vision packages (OpenCV) to design pixel-to-pixel electroluminescence (EL) imaging comparison techniques, as well as building a foundational data analysis pipeline for analysis of photovoltaic (PV) datasets.
BitLift.com - 2020-2021: Working with BitLift, I helped them scale their Wordpress eCommerce store, locate products and partners to expand their business, and created listings for their dropshipped items. When orders were placed on BitLift, I placed the orders at the corresponding retailers to be dropshipped to customers.
A few of my skills:
3 years of chemical handling experience
3 years in quality control
.5 years in the photovoltaic industry
1 year in the Aerospace industry
1 year in the eCommerce industry
Sharing my knowledge
A Low-Cost Spectrometer for the University Rover Competition
For the 2025 University Rover Competition, I designed a spectrometer for Project S.T.O.R.M. The task was to create a low cost, functional spectrometer that does not compromise the type of functionality received with pre-built spectrometers.
Underwater Imaging Techniques with Applications in Archaeology
As the years marched on, we have seen many advances in techniques of performing archaeology on land. I suggest a few ways this can be applied to underwater archaeology and discover ways to find more of our planet's history in the depths.
