I am a researcher and modeler of solar energy system performance and reliability. Data analysis, modeling, and optimization are my specialties. I'll use any computer language or platform, but my favorites are Python and Linux. I don't just develop algorithms though; I've also worked on web and desktop applications, user experience designs, databases management, dev-ops, project management, and technical writing and presentations. I was also a math and science high school teacher for 6 years, 2-1/2 of which were in the Peace Corps in Tanzania, East Africa. Fun!
