Welcome!

I use this space to post miscellaneous things that I find interesting or that I am working on.

I have 10+ years experience developing data science solutions for large organizations, including Intel, NAVAIR, Nestlé Manufacturing, and Bridgestone. I specialize in introducing organizations with basic data storage and action-readiness to modern machine-learning and data retrieval practices. I am most experienced with chemical and industrial practices, and I am very familiar with starting out as data-rich but insight-poor.

I am generally interested in technology as well. Here you will find a combination of writings, experiments, and even some video games I have produced over the years.
