Hi! I have a background in physics and notions in theoretical computer science, but since my PhD I have mostly been doing computational biology.
What I like the most is scientific computing, and I usually do that in Rust or Python.

Outside of computer things, I like hiking, baking with sourdough and folding paper.

Strong believer in public services, libraries, open access and open source. English and French toots.

Born at 354 ppm.

I'm an Information Security Engineer in #nyc at a non-profit.

Always tinkering/learning/exploring.

Not keen on social media, but trying out this old elephant thing - so expect a lot of listening and lurking (and thanks for providing the content to do so)!

Hobbies include:
- pointless #python side projects
- #CTFs time permitting
- #space and #rockets
- #hiking, #outdoors, and #camping
- #travel and #aviation
- #cooking and #food
