### Relevant coursework

Digital Signal ProcessingEmbedded Systems DesignComputer EngineeringCircuit AnalysisSignals and SystemsMicroprocessorsProbability & StatisticsData StructuresAlgorithms

### Recognition

Foresight Institute Fellow

Foresight Institute

Fellowship for work on transformative technologies and long-term thinking. Presented "The Prospera FDA" at the 2022 Longevity Workshop.

## Work philosophy

### Data-driven

If it can't be measured, I'll find a way to measure it. If it can be measured, I'll make a spreadsheet about it.

### Ship fast

Perfect is the enemy of deployed. I'd rather iterate on something real than plan something imaginary.

### Open source

Most of my work is public. Reproducible research requires open code and open data.
