A scientist at heart, insatiably curious, pragmatically optimistic. Currently developing a jaw-droppingly-awesome hardware + cloud platform product for the fitness industry (www.zenith.fitness), while providing data science/analytics, programming, and related services (www.valiance.io) on the side. I like to keep busy. On a personal level, I'm a friendly, nerdy individual with a wide range of interests, from technical (computers, science, data) to common (fitness, reading) to utterly arbitrary (ethnic food, Armenian, development economics). I tend to be enthusiastic and a bit quirky and love to learn and to try new things.
