Jan 2019 - Jun 2022
I'm engaged in a variety of machine learning based projects. They span diverse areas including image classification in satellite imagery, image classification in OAM-based communications, and anomaly detection in hyperspectral images. I'm also heavily involved in the satellite image processing pipeline including image acquisition, moving images between various systems, running images through CNN a classification model (which I trained), and populating database tables with results. As the data sources were unique I also had to build training set over time and improved the classifier iteratively. Show less

1999 - 2003
I started at Spendlove Research doing temp work. After a couple weeks they asked if I'd like to work part time doing 'facilities maintenance' (janitorial and organization of their storage items). After about a year of employment I overheard the Research Director talking with the CEO about the need to network their computers. In a previous job I had worked in the computer lab at USU, so I worked my way over to them (with broom in hand) and said I had some computer experience and that I could probably do what they needed. I subsequently became their facilities maintenance/ networking and IT support. About a year following that they needed to automate some of their image analysis capabilities. Again I heard the discussion and offered to give it a go. At that point I was relieved of facilities maintenance responsibilities and was able to focus on image analysis software. Good memories. :) Show less
