I am a programmer with 20 years of experience. While my real passion is machine learning and data science I have a great deal of experience developing web-based applications. My preferred language is Python, but I also know R, MatLab, SQL, PHP, Javascript, C++, and I have used Java, Scala, Ruby and Perl in the past.

My current favorite machine learning frameworks are PyTorch and TensorFlow, but I am also comfortable with Keras, sklearn, lightgbm, xgboost, pytorch, and others. My favorite web frameworks are Django, Laravel, and Symfony, in that order.

I am currently pursuing a Master of Computer Science at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign which I expect to receive in Spring of 2020. I have a BA in Computer Science from Oberlin College in Oberlin, OH, USA and an MBA from Marist College in Poughkeepsie, NY, USA, and a Certificate of Open Studies in Machine Learning at EPFL in Lausanne, CH.

I live in Switzerland, am a dual American/Swiss citizen, and am bilingual in English and French and have rudimentary knowledge of German.

I am available for full-time or contract development work.

This site is written in PHP using the Laravel Framework and Bootstrap CSS. It runs on an Ubuntu server and uses MySQL as a primary database, and Redis for some things.

The majority of this site' functionality is provided by some Laravel packages, which are available on my GitHub page, on my Packagist page and are documented here.
