My name is Maria and yes, you would have encountered many Marias in your life, as it is a common name. Be it in my neighborhood, school, and more, I am never called Maria, it’s often, “Tall Maria”, “Maria 1 or 2”, “Maria R” (R stands for Rojo which is my last name), or simply just “Rojo” as people just tend to avoid the complexity of calling my first name and ending up creating an unnecessary mess. Though my name is common, I strive to make my existence and presence unique. I believe that when it’s time for me to bid farewell to the world, there must be a couple of people who look up to me and say, yes she has made a difference or an impact. This fuels me to give my maximum in everything I try to do.
Skipping to my achievements, I have been blessed with various leadership positions both in school and college which has helped me realize my true leadership potential. I have an avid interest in digital marketing and content writing.
My passion in content writing helped me build Musings By Maria, my own blogging website, where I voice my thoughts, views and words on a wide range of topics. Giving it a quick read would indeed make me happy.
So that's a quick glimpse about who I am and my expertise. 
I finished my undergraduation from Rajagiri School of Engineering and Technology, Kerala, I have completed my bachelor's degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering.
My journey here has been marked by dynamic leadership roles and hands-on experiences that have shaped my professional trajectory. Serving as the founding Chairperson of the RSET IEEE Signal Processing Society and Treasurer of the IEEE Industrial Application Society, I've demonstrated my ability to drive impactful initiatives and foster collaboration within academic circles. My commitment to practical learning led me to undertake a one-month internship at Wrench Solutions, where I developed a data sorting application using C programming, gaining valuable insights into software development. Additionally, my mini-project on automating car headlights with a simple 8051 microcontroller showcased my proficiency in embedded systems. I have currently completed a challenging project focusing on the implementation and analysis of Normal General Matrix Multiply (GEMM) and Tiled General Matrix Multiply (GEMM) on ARM-based SoC and on PC's, leveraging the hardware capabilities of the Xilinx FPGA with Zynq 7000 board. This project not only allows me to explore advanced concepts in hardware design but also expands my expertise in programming languages such as C, VHDL, and Verilog. My academic journey has been further enriched by my participation in an international Model United Nations conference, where I achieved verbal commendation, enhancing my communication skills and broadening my horizons.
As I continue my pursuit of my dream job, I am driven by a relentless passion to further enhance my skills and explore new opportunities in the realms of electronics, programming, and project management.
