About Me

I'm a senior at Binghamton University, where I study Computer Science and Mathematics.

Lately, I've been interested in hackathons, trying new ideas, and slacklining.

If you want to get in touch, e-mail is the best way.

Music

I've been playing trombone since 2003, and I currently study with Don Robertson at Binghamton University.

I perform with Don's low brass studio ensemble, the Binghamton University Symphony Orchestra, and the Binghamton University Wind Symphony.

You might also see me play in some of the music department's recitals, or at Binghamton's commencement ceremonies.

I make multi-track recordings of myself on trombone, and compose alternative electronic music. Some of my work is available on soundcloud.

Programming

I've been hacking on some cool projects! You can check out my hacks on my devpost page.

If you want to see code for my projects, look at my GitHub.

I'm one of the core organizers of HackBU. I head up the sponsorships team and help students out at our weekly workshops.

Lately, I've been programming in C++, C, and Python. I've worked with Java a bunch, and have messed around with Ruby and Perl here and there, too. I write javascript from time to time, as well.
