    About me

    I have been involved with a variety of industries, from commanding satellites to riding ATV's in the mountains collecting data. I have since migrated to a more ordinary desk but I like to think that my work is just as exciting. I have a passion for data and design as well as working with people. I try to meld all of these passions into my work. I love learning about new technology and new projects. Recently I have really been focused on NLP and Climate AI.
