About

I lead the iBOTS group, where I teach neuroscientists how to write code that doesn’t collapse under its own weight. My work sits at the intersection of Python training, workflow design, and pragmatic software engineering. Whether it’s teaching people how to structure analysis code, use Git without fear, or build pipelines that actually run next year, my goal is always the same: help researchers make their work more reliable and less painful.

If you’re looking for support, training, or collaboration that cuts through complexity instead of adding to it, you’re in the right place. Feel free to reach out, especially if you want to improve your lab’s coding practices, build more robust data workflows, do some outreach, teach a course, or just need a skeptical voice to stress-test your ideas.
