About me

I have been working in IT for over 20 years. My passion is machine learning and data science, but I also have a great deal of experience developing web-based applications in roles including lead developer, project manager and DBA.

I am currently pursuing a Masters of Computer Science at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, which I expect to receive in December of 2019. I have a BA in Computer Science from Oberlin College in Oberlin, Ohio, USA; an MBA from Marist College in Poughkeepsie, New York, USA; and a Certificate of Open Studies in Machine Learning from EPFL in Lausanne, CH.

My favorite programming languages are, in order of preference: Python, R, Javascript, PHP, SQL, C++, Scala. I also have experience with Java, Ruby, Perl and others.As far as machine learning frameworks I am comfortable with TensorFlow, Pytorch, Keras, scikit-learn, caret, xgboost, and others. As far as web frameworks go my preferences are Django, Laravel and Symfony.

I live in Switzerland with my wife. I am a dual Swiss/US citizen and am bilingual in English and French.

I am currently available for freelance or part-time work in Switzerland or remotely.

My CV is available here.


About this site

This site is written in Python using the Django Framework. It runs on an Ubuntu server with a MySQL database. For ease of maintenance, this site uses the same database as my site written in Laravel.

The site is composed of several Django apps, most of which are available on my GitHub page.
