ABOUT ME
Experienced software engineer who is passionate about helping others
Experienced software engineer who is passionate about helping others

I have over 23 years of programming experience with many different languages (C, C++, MATLAB, Python, and others) on various platforms. The majority of my professional experience is in scientific and engineering software, but I also have experience and interest with mobile apps and games. I am currently working as a computer systems researcher and have a PhD in Aerospace Engineering with a focus on computational fluid dynamics and 7+ years experience in academia.

C++ is one of the first languages I learned and I have over 20 years experience with the language. I have mainly used C++ in scientific and engineering computing applications and have experience with parallel programming and scientific libraries such as BLAS and LAPACK. I am fairly fluent with C++ and would feel very comfortable using it in other contexts. Most recently, I have been applying my skills to data analytics and machine learning.
