My goal is to cure epilepsy. I analyze data obtained from intracranial recordings from patients, which normally involves data from hundreds of electrodes across multiple weeks. This has caused me to learn about two related programming fields: parallel processing and databases. My education is in engineering, mathematics and neuroscience and I have been programming for over 25 years. My strengths are C, C++, Java, Matlab, SQL and R with some experience in Python and Scala/Akka.
