I develop software as a hobby, primarily in C#. Most of which is open-sourced via github.

I hold a BS in Biomedical Engineering and have several years of hands-on clinical experience in cardiology and respiratory therapy.

I have contributed as a co-author to several publications in applied physical chemistry leveraging quantum computational chemistry techniques such as Density Functional Theory with a focus on organic molecular crystals and their semiconductor properties.
