I'm intrigued by the challenge that data provides and enjoy coaxing away its secrets.

My initial passion was conducting research in muscle physiology and genomics to better understand and improve athletic performance. I'm excited to have the opportunity to use that background along with my experience in machine learning to extract insights from the interesting data sets emanating from the various sciences and technologies related to precision medicine.

I'm presently conducting research in natural language understanding, voice recognition and linguistic profiling. (In other words, can a machine infer education level, age, race or nationality of origin from your voice?)

I'm passionate about:

• Teaching ML/AI to help others better understand these imperative technologies

• Helping the self-taught more effectively learn

• Creative data visualization
