01 / THINGS I HELP BUILD

Small team.
Big questions.

Better tools make new discoveries possible.
That’s where our work begins.

BUILT FOR SCIENCE. USED BY TEAMS AT
Max Planck · Harvard · Francis Crick · EMBL · EPFL

02 / THE COMMON THREAD

Driven by curiosity.

Open by default.

Good ideas get better when they’re shared. Contributing to open source and the Zarr community is part of how I build.

From pixels to insight.

I’m interested in what happens when machine learning meets real scientific problems. Especially when the result helps someone discover something new.

Ideas into working tools.

From a fast interface to the data behind it, I enjoy connecting the pieces and making complex technology feel approachable.

03 / A FEW THINGS ON PAPER

Research,
in the wild.

Some of the science behind the software.

ALWAYS UP FOR A GOOD CONVERSATION
