I am an Associate Professor Lecturer at the University of Utah Department of Mathematics. I maintain both academic and commercial pursuits. My academic research studies how the biophysical dynamics of the nervous system represents and processes information.
My business, Longtail Consulting, provides data science and probabilistic modelling solutions for commercial applications.
