 Worked as a consultant for many years, of which the capstone project was working for Air Force One through Walter Reed Hospital. It's a great honor when one's software is part of the Air Force One tooling--and the first closed loop medical device approved by the Food and Drug Administration.
 
-I was hired hired full time in Vanderbilt's Cancer Biology department to create math models of cancer progression and help run an automated microscope. Working with the microscope data, it led me to statistics as the best means to interpret the data for the lab. I discovered a new passion in statistics, and went back and got my masters at Penn State in 2014. This has led me to becoming faculty in [Biostatistics](https://www.vumc.org/biostatistics/vanderbilt-department-biostatistics) at [Vanderbilt University Medical Center](https://www.vumc.org/main/home). I work a fair bit with [Health Policy](https://www.vumc.org/health-policy/welcome-health-policy) on evaluating and optimizing medical treatment decision making. Our working group got a paper in the top 10 genomics papers of the year, three years in a row--an academic hat trick.

 These are a few of the packages I maintain.
 
-* [redcapAPI](https://github.com/vubiostat/redcapAPI) An R interface to VUMC main data collection platform.
-* [emg](https://github.com/spgarbet/emg/) A random mixture distribution function package for R.
+* [redcapAPI](https://github.com/vubiostat/redcapAPI) An R interface to VUMC main data collection platform. Noteable for it's use of [inversion of control](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inversion_of_control) when typecasting. 
+* [emg](https://github.com/spgarbet/emg/) A random mixture distribution of a Gaussian and an Exponential process for R.
 * [acepack](https://github.com/vubiostat/acepack) Variance stabilization routines in R. 
 * [yaml](https://github.com/vubiostat/r-yaml) A [YAML 1.1](https://yaml.org/spec/1.1/) interface for R. A strong [dependency](https://xkcd.com/2347/) for the modern R community of packages.
