About Me

Hello! My name is Brock, and I am currently a software engineer working at Two Sigma. I graduated from the University of Washington in Spring 2020 with a Bachelor's of Science in computer science and a minor in math. After graduating, I spent a year and a half working on improving the time it takes for Amazon Aurora to export data to S3. In my free time I enjoy playing ultimate frisbee, playing chess, listening to music, practicing my guitar. I'm hoping to gain additional experience working in the tech industry, and also to continue to keep up to date and learn more about current research advances in other adjacent fields (machine learning, artificial intelligence, math, and so on).
