About Me

My name is Josh. I work on all things "technical computing", but my niche is the intersection of statistics and computer science. I'm good at solving problems and then converting whiteboard math into efficient programs. Julia is my favorite language. During my PhD I researched online (a.k.a. streaming/single-pass) algorithms for statistics (see OnlineStats.jl).
