I'm a computer scientist and research software engineer working to (hopefully) improve our abilities to understand and adapt to our rapidly changing world with "ethically grounded", evidence-based and adaptive computational science.
Since I began my career at ASU in 2006 I've been a proponent of open, transparent computational science. Current and past projects include:
- research into collective action and the commons 🤲 via multiplayer "serious games" and experiments, the Virtual Commons
- the Network for Computational Modeling in the Social and Ecological Sciences (CoMSES Net)
- the Open Modeling Foundation (OMF)
- Synthesizing Knowledge of Past Environments (SKOPE)
- the Consortium of Scientific Software Registries and Repositories (scicodes)
- the Digital Archaeological Record (tDAR)
- Research Data Alliance's FAIR For Research Software (FAIR4RS) Working Group
- FORCE11 Software Citation Implementation Working Group
- The Software and Data Carpentries certified instructor and lesson maintainer for the Plotting and Programming in Python and Good Enough Practices for Scientific Computing lessons
- Community Surface Dynamics Modeling Systems' Basic Model Interface (BMI) Council (2022-)
- DataCite Services and Technology Steering Group (2023-)
- Open Modeling Foundation's Cyberinfrastructure Working Group co-chair (2022-)
