Detector and framework independent Tools, geometry and event data classes for the ACTS track reconstruction toolkit. It is initially based on the ATLAS Tracking repository.

Hello!

Hi there! My name is Stephen, and I'm a high-performance scientific software engineer at the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN). Specifically, I work on @acts-project, where I am trying to bring GPGPU technology to track reconstruction.

Besides high performance computing, I am also enamoured with programing language theory, functional programming, and compilers. I enjoy learning more about category theory and logic, but I don't have much time to study them. My favourite programming languages are Python, C++, Rust, and Haskell. One of the things I enjoy most in my line of work is education, and I am always looking for ways to help out with trainings and such!

Outside of computing, I am an amateur photographer and I really enjoy tabletop roleplaying games. I like to ride my bicycle around the Swiss-French countryside for exercise.

Please feel free to contact me with questions, suggestions, collaborations, or whatever else!
