I am currently working under contract for Microsoft Research, developing software with the Biomedical Signal Processing group in Microsoft Health Futures. I am thrilled to work on open source projects like yardl and tyger, bringing cloud-based signal processing to medical imaging.

Previously, I was the Lead Engineer at Grier Forensics, where I originated many new advanced research and development projects. I led development of SilentWeb, an analytics platform for large scale (600 TB) web data developed for the US Air Force; FireSky, Grier’s distributed cyber defense system for tactical IP networks, also developed for the US Air Force; Thunderboost, Grier’s automated forensics platform; and the Great DANE suite of tools for email security.

Prior to joining Grier, I was a Software Engineer at the Functional MRI Facility at the National Institutes of Health, where I helped develop Gadgetron, the open-source medical image reconstruction framework. I also helped create the ISMRM format for MRI datasets, including APIs for C/C++, Python, and MATLAB. My work resulted in a peer-reviewed publication in Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, as well as a popular open source implementation.

In my spare time, I enjoy fun adventures with my awesome kids, tinkering with software projects, skateboarding and working out, making music, practicing Spanish, and many other fun side quests.
