ABOUT RICK WALKER
I\'m a data and visualization scientist who\'s interested in making sense of data. I have a strong mathematical and statistical background, encompassing data mining, prediction and machine learning, and backed by a solid knowledge of algorithms. I\'m comfortable and experienced at writing code in a number of different languages. My doctorate was on computational fluid dynamic simulations in astrophysics: I wrote simulation code, and developed an integrated environment for visualization and analysis of simulations of the early stages of star formation.After five years of post-doc research in visual analytics, I moved to the gaming industry and now I work on a range of interesting problems on a huge data set together with a great team.Unfortunately, I\'m still terrible at Candy Crush.
