About
Overview
I'm from Charleston, West Virginia. I grew up around restaurants, workshops, and people who figured things out with their hands. That stuck.
Right now I'm a data scientist at WorkForce WV, where I maintain the state's labor market information site and modernize the data infrastructure behind it. I'm also finishing a CS degree at Marshall University (Spring 2027) and planning to keep going after that.
Research
I published a paper in 2024 on using physics simulation to generate synthetic training data for computer vision, with WVU and The Conservation Fund.

Other Things
I play guitar, upright bass, and bass guitar. I toured Europe with the WV Youth Orchestra and still play regularly. I also do woodworking, clock repair, sand-etched glasswork (through Homegrown Spirits with my partner), and whatever else I can get my hands on.
