Jed Webster

Welcome to my page! I am a recent graduate with an appetite for all things involving mathematics, data, and software. This is a space for me to experiment and showcase some of my personal projects for the general purpose of amusement. Interested in pursuing a career in data science, data engineering, quantitative software engineering, or related fields.
