New server, new #introduction:
Hi! I'm Eric! I'm a scientific programmer & educator who writes mostly
code. I currently work part time at #UniversityOfArizona where I help researchers by making R packages, #Shiny apps, automated data workflows, and training them on #ReproducibleResearch practices. I also mentor data scientists for @Posit Academy. I am #OpenToWork as a contractor if any of those skills sound useful to you.
My background is in plant chemical ecology and population ecology and for my PhD I studied #tea and did field work in China. I love tea (although I've been drinking coffee more and more lately) and practice #GongFuCha when I can. I love #foraging and tasting new things.
I currently live in #Tucson but the #BayArea will always be my home.
