Talks & Presentations

I’ve spoken at academic conferences, local meetups, and professional events over the years. Talks are embedded below — click through for fullscreen.

SIAM 2016

Using ML to flag poor-quality lab photographs at scale — research from my undergrad position, presented at SIAM 2016.

SIAM 2017

A massively parallel simulation of soliton gas dynamics in 1D systems — the computational methods work from my applied math research assistant role, presented at SIAM 2017.

Chaos and Collatz

An exploration of the Collatz Conjecture through the lens of chaos theory — built for a college course, but an excuse to think about how simple iterative rules produce complex behavior.

Simulated Annealing

The redistricting-via-simulated-annealing project adapted into a Boulder Python talk — computational geometry for a general audience.

Reusable D3 Charting

The Boulder D3 Meetup talk behind the reusable charting writeup — building configurable chart components with ES6 classes.

AirB&B Data Analysis

Expanded the Boston AirBnB interview project into a full talk — analysis pipeline, key findings, and visualization approach.

AirB&B Data Visualization

The interactive D3 map that went with the talk above — Boston AirBnB listings rendered geospatially.
