Boulder, Colorado

We are currently working on a Slack chat bot to help individuals navigate through the tumultuous seas of their team's slack to find what's important to them and ignore the rest. We use Haskell, ghcjs, Postgres, and some machine learning (word vectors, TF/IDF, Markov Chains, clustering).

I am the creator of Posh (http://github.com/mpdairy/posh), a popular open source Clojure library that helps developers easily connect reactionary components to Datomic or DataScript databases. I make full-stack software using Clojure. I also do machine learning like genetic algorithms, text analysis, and neural networks. I am most experienced in Clojure.

I worked remotely with the Cognician dev team to help implement the third version of their e-learning platform. I mainly worked with Onyx and Datomic to build a system that processes user events and generates statistics.

Tongues lets people learn languages through literature. Using a simple interactive exercise and bilingual texts combined with audio from native speakers, the student can learn a foreign language by working through interesting original literature from that culture. I created and implemented the concept, UI, and content-creation back-end using PHP, MySQL.

• Created interface to Quake II for use in Artificial Intelligence (AI) research.
• Conducted AI research with computer vision, genetic algorithms, and neural networks, using mainly Scheme, but also C and Python.
• Wrote four conference papers and a journal article.
• Mentored special-program high school students to conduct similar research.

Master Of Science (M.S.), Computer Science

Worked as research assistant for Bobby D Bryant in the Neuroevolution and Behavior Laboratory. My thesis was about using neural networks.

Bachelor Of Arts (B.A.), Computer Science

I wanted to be a Renaissance man and learn art, music, writing, philosophy, languages, science, and engineering. I settled on Computer.
