Hi, I'm Milo!
I do software engineering software engineering data science particle physics software engineering

I like to work on meaningful challenges and have some fun along the way, combining my background in physics with my software engineering skills. In the past I've worked on particle detectors at CERN and ESA satellite missions, and I currently work in medical physics at the New York Proton Center.

Work Experience

I've had the good fortune to work with inspiring colleagues on truly impactful projects. Here is a short summary on my most recent positions.

Medical Physicist Assistant

Mar 2024 → Current

As part of the physics group, I help ensure that proton therapy patients receive their planned care. I also manage the center's software version control and am involved in several research projects.

Education

I'm passionate about learning and growing, evidenced by an education that is as varied as it is extensive. Here is a brief overview of my academic achievements, with some light reading in the form of my theses.

PhD Particle Physics

During my doctoral research, I found a way to unmask impostor particles that act like the particle we were actually after in our large-scale neutrino experiment. I also created low-level and performant data-acquisition code.

Projects

Sometimes I work on coding projects in my free time. Sometimes I even finish these projects. Here are the ones I am keenest to show off.

Thanks for visiting V2 of my website! I built this version to learn Svelte and brush up on my Typescript. If you have any questions about me or if you see something break on this website, feel free to contact me!
