I did a PhD at the [MASDOC program at Warwick](https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/masdoc), and spent two years in a postdoc position at [CMSA at Harvard](http://cmsa.fas.harvard.edu) and another one and a half years at the [KTH RMSMA group](https://www.math.kth.se/RMSMA/). These days I am a software engineer and steadily forgetting mathematics, not cool and a problem I am trying to fix. -He is interested in machine learning, with a preference to its theoretical (which really translates to mathematical because he views statistics and theoretical computer science as subsets of mathematics) aspects. +I believe anyone can be an academic, seeking truth and sharing their findings with the public. -As an academic his job is to seek truth and share his findings with the public. +I am interested in the idea of free software, and have been attempting to apply it to knowledge and research.
