Studied cyber security (theory of cryptographic protocols) and machine learning in grad school.

I love to take real-world problems and model them with formal structures and computer programs.

I'm practiced with picking up new languages quickly for one-off projects.

Hobbies: problem solving, critical reasoning, rhetoric, math (esp. graph theory!), economics, cognitive science, political science, and planting trees.

Interested in machine learning, especially fields with practical applications that can make a difference in the world such as economics, knowledge sharing, healthcare, bioinformatics, and ecoinformatics.

Deep relationship with Python; Pretty skillful with C++, PHP, Javascript, MySQL, Java, Haskell, Matlab.
