  <h2>About Me</h2>

  <p>
    Hello There! I'm a software developer focused on using data visualization,
    data analysis, and data science. I love to elucidate data and use it to
    provide insight and solve problems.
  </p>

  <p>
    I currently work at
    <a href="https://jobs.netflix.com/">Netflix</a> where I build internal tools
    to enable decision making.
  </p>

  <p>
    Previously, I have worked at
    <a href="https://www.capitalgroup.com/">Capital Group</a>,
    <a href="https://www.zymergen.com/">Zymergen</a> as a Staff Data
    Visualization and Data Science Engineer, and before that, at
    <a href="http://bocoup.com/datavis">Bocoup</a> as part of the Data
    Visualization team along with
    <a href="https://twitter.com/ireneros">Irene Ros</a>,
    <a href="http://clome.info/">Yannick Assogba</a> and
    <a href="https://peterbeshai.com/">Peter Beshai</a>.
  </p>

  <p>
    I've also worked for the
    <a href="https://shop.nordstrom.com/">Nordstrom Data Lab</a> as a Data
    Visualization Engineer/Data Scientist. And before that, I helped analyze
    genomic data as a member of the
    <a href="http://research.stowers.org/compbio/">Bioinformatic Group</a> at
    the very special <a href="http://www.stowers.org/">Stowers Institute</a>.
