I've helped found multiple start-ups, including CorticalLabs an AI+Biotech company working on "Synthetic Biological Intelligence". I've co-authored several papers and patents in deep learning and neuroscience. I've made a mess in more than a dozen programming languages over my career. My stack is full. I've worked on custom neural interface hardware to web apps and everything in between. I've won a few hack-a-thons. I started the Machine Learning and AI meetup in Melbourne Australia, helped found & organize the Compose :: Melbourne conference. I have two cats, I scoop their poop most days.
