    I'm a PhD chemist that moved into writing and editing. I still do that, but I'm looking to flesh out some additional skills around data analysis. I've completed small projects like setting up automated transcription just to make translating an interview to an article easier. Experience with excel and python and some AI/ML stuff for coding up models. Pretty much for fun so far, but I'm looking to find some good projects to apply my knowledge... and persistence... to.

    I'm a PhD student in Physics with a strong background in mathematics, numerical methods, and scientific computing. My academic and research experience has centered on complex systems, computational modeling, and data-driven approaches to physical problems. My work has required developing and modifying simulation packages, writing custom analysis scripts, and implementing high-performance code to solve real-world physics problems. I’m proficient in a range of programming languages, including: Python – for data analysis, machine learning, numerical computation (NumPy, SciPy), and automation Fortran – for legacy scientific codebases, especially in quantum and solid-state simulations C and C++ – for performance-critical computing, numerical solvers, and physics simulations Java – for general-purpose programming and projects requiring strong object-oriented design I also have experience working with AI/ML frameworks and concepts, including supervised and unsupervised learning, neural networks, and model evaluation. My familiarity with machine learning is both theoretical and practical — I've applied it in Python using tools like scikit-learn and PyTorch for scientific data classification and pattern recognition. In addition to my academic background, I have contributed to technical documentation, research toolkits, and model development environments, and I’ve worked collaboratively with teams across disciplines to integrate physics-based models with modern computational techniques. My experience includes using high-performance computing clusters, optimizing simulation workflows, and writing efficient, maintainable code.
