Bryan's avatar, Nefer

I'm a full-stack engineer at Altro Health, based in Brooklyn, NY, and I studied human-computer interaction at Georgia Tech. My work has always been full-stack: secure, usable systems from the database to the button. Graduate coursework and side projects got me into health informatics and standards like FHIR, and now I get to build with them every day.
