About

I work as a Solutions Architect (Senior Principal) at Koverse an SAIC company. I work with our clients in Hawaii.

I also teach courses for GTKcyber at Blackhat each August with the esteemed Charles Givre. Check us out for your AI/ML training needs. Our courses are aimed at cybersecurity professionals who want to use AI in their work.

I am a proud alumnus of the Metis Data Science Bootcamp (Chicago, Fall 2017 cohort). I highly recommend this camp if you are interested in becoming a data scientist, want to develop some great projects, or brush up on your machine learning skillset. You will learn everything that you need to know to hit the ground running in data science, from environment setup to mathematics. www.thisismetis.com

From 2015-2017, I was on the science faculty at Bard Early College Baltimore, where I taught College Biology, Intro to Computer Science, Foundations of Technology, and Music Appreciation. 

My postdoctoral fellowship (5 years) was with Charles Limb, MD at Johns Hopkins where we studied musical creativity, auditory perception and fractal structure. I was funded by an NRSA Fellowship with the Biomedical Engineering Department at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and grants from the Brain Sciences Institute. 

In August, 2010 I earned my PhD in Complex Systems and Brain Sciences from Florida Atlantic University. I devoted my time to system administration for the Music Dynamics Lab and my research on human coordination with 1/f-type (fractal)  auditory signals. My advisor was Edward Large, PhD. 

I am an avid quilter who makes excellent cold brew coffee.
