    William Best

    Over the years I have held several different programming roles, and the projects that interested me the most were the data-intensive ones. I received a BS and BE from NYU and Stevens respectively, and did my MEng at Cornell. During school, I focused on computer vision, and have worked on image processing and computer vision projects both professionally and personally. I'm currently learning how to work with larger and more diverse data sets. My hobbies include photography and cooking.
