Sanford @ Stanford

Sanford holds both a Masters of Science and Engineer Degree in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University. Stanford’s Engineer Degree program is similar to a Ph.D. program, with a focus on practical, professional work rather than the theoretical and academic.

While completing his thesis, Sanford also served as an advisor and mentor for other startups in the Bay Area.

Engineering Thesis

Sanford’s Engineers thesis was based on his research at the Stanford Robotics Lab in the Computer Science Department.
