About Rob

I’m a data engineer and author 📚 who used to work in film 🎬

The Spring of Sight is my debut nonfiction book. It’s a tech ethics read for lay-people about computer vision and society. Grab a copy for 99¢ on the kindle store!

My day job is currently “Senior Data Mining Engineer” at Angi dot com (FKA “Angie’s List”). It involves programming cloud computers to scrape and clean web data, mostly with Python and NodeJS. Angi is hiring, so reach out if you see a role that calls to you!

I grew up in Silicon Valley, and it shows. Now I live with my fiancée in Brooklyn, NY.
