Building systems, tools, and research.
I build things across systems programming, machine learning, and data tooling. I also conduct empirical research in applied machine learning, quantitative finance and environmental modeling, with papers on SSRN/arXiv. I take ideas from experiment to production, with the engineering discipline to make them reliable and the research rigor to know they're right. Most of what's below started as a question I wanted answered.
