I am a software engineer at the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, Maryland. We provide support to the NASA Hubble Space Telescope and James Webb Space Telescope projects.

Scala is currently my favorite programming language.

I am also a writer working on my first novel. One of my goals is to get published and answer questions about my work on SciFi.SE.
