About Me

I am the founder of Axiomix Consulting. I build custom scientific software for academia and industry.

I was formerly a Staff Software Engineer at The Stellar Development Foundation, where my responsibilities included protocol design and protocol implementation. This required careful consideration of security and performance. Ensuring that code was high quality and thoroughly tested were important aspects of my role.

I graduated from MIT in 2015, where I double majored in mathematics and physics with a minor in economics. Some of my favorite courses at MIT included quantum mechanics, functional analysis, and game theory. I have continued to pursue my interests in math and science through self-study since graduation.
