            <p class="lead">Currently a Mathematical Modeler at <a href="https://www.immunetrics.com/">Immunetrics, Inc.</a>, I received my B.A. in Mathematics from <a href="https://www.goshen.edu/">Goshen College</a> in Indiana and graduated with a Ph.D. in Computational Biology from the <a href="http://compbio.ku.edu/">University of Kansas</a>.  After graduation, I worked for two years as a postdoctoral research associate at <a href="https://lanl.gov/">Los Alamos National Laboratory</a>. My primary expertise is in modeling dynamical systems, typically for biological or physiological applications. </p>

            <p class="lead"> I am proficient with the Python programming language and am familiar with Java, Scala and C/C++.  I regularly use Python scientific libraries (numpy, scipy, pandas, etc.) for modeling and data management.  My daily workflow includes numerical integration of systems of ODEs, optimization and validation of models with clinical/experimental data, and analysis and graphing of results. </p>

            <p class="lead" align="right">My current work involves predictive modeling of mid-to-late phase clinical trials to assess the viability of drug candidates.  These disease-specific models often span multiple scales, from intracellular to inter-organ systems.  In some cases they merge both mechanistic and statistical modeling approaches. </p>
