Computer Scientist

Albuquerque, NM

I work at Sandia National Laboratories, where my department focuses on work in autonomous sensing and perception. I do algorithm design and implementation for machine learning and target recognition, as well as ATR assurance. When I’m not working on things I can’t talk about, I enjoy losing board games to my wife, building a programmable smart home, and telling my toddler why she should love penguins.
