About — in the speaker's own words

I am a data engineer at Blue Yonder, where I build infrastructure for large-scale demand forecasting solutions. My career spans nearly a decade in academia, high-tech R&D, and industry, during which python has been a constant tool across a wide variety of environments. During my PhD in physics, I used python to analyze time-series data from some of the world’s most precise quantum sensors in the search for dark matter. Earlier in my career, I applied python to data analysis and modeling in high-precision laser gyroscope R&D, and today I continue to use it to develop robust, production-grade machine learning systems.
