Bio

I am primarily a physicist, but one with an extremely diverse range of experiences. After I received my PhD in Physics in 1992 I worked in academic (University of Chicago and Tulane University) and federal research institutions (Los Alamos National Laboratory and NASA Ames Research Center), where I worked on diverse research programs in theoretical physics, nonlinear dynamics and complex systems, mathematical modeling and numerical methods for model-based inference, biomedical engineering, and experimental electrophysiology and molecular biology. During this time I had numerous journal publications and was the principal investigator on two NIH grants and a Whitaker Foundation Biomedical Engineering award. I left pure research to try my hand in the private sector about a decade ago. Since then I founded one start-up, and and was Chief Scientist at another where I made use of my mathematical expertise in physics, algorithm development and time-series feature extraction, and my experimental experience in digital signal processing, numerical analysis and the design and construction of sensors and sensor networks.

I have taken several years off to follow several passions and bucket list projects. I’m looking for a job at the interface between the technology and research sectors where I can make full use of my experience in scientific software development and wide toolset.
