Random Quote: Here is my advice to you, the adventurers – fear will show you the way; walk steadily toward it, for otherwise you will always be running. - Yossi Ghinsberg
I like mathematics and programming, which is good because they occupy most of my waking hours, along with some of my dreams. I am currently based at Australian National University, working on dynamic optimization and distribution dynamics, with applications in economics and finance.
In 2016, Tom Sargent and I co-founded the US-based nonprofit organization QuantEcon. Among other things, QuantEcon supports open source software for computational modeling, promotes open science, runs computational workshops for disadvantaged students, and provides lectures and documentation for open source scientific software.
I have many bad habits, one of which is buying too many maths books. In my spare time I enjoy riding motorbikes (especially my beloved F800R), table tennis, sailing, fishing, cooking, playing guitar (badly), listening to music, spending time with my family, watching cricket, and hanging out with my buddies. Like my Dad, I am interested in world history and anything to do with the ocean. Like my Mum, I love hiking, rivers and mountains.
