Hi! I'm Adam, a Bayesian statistician primarily working as a contractor at the Center for Forecasting and Outbreak Analytics at the CDC. For more information, and my blog, see athowes.github.io. To give an idea about my work, see:

- I'm always looking to improve at writing clear, concise, efficient, reproducible code. Any suggestions, let me know! I predominantly program in R. Over time, I'd like to become multilinual by learning Python (and maybe Julia?): advice welcome.
- I'm currently reading: Trees, maps, and theorems, The Effective Manager, and miscellaneous resources about technical management, see
reading. - You may be interested in these
resourcesI've found useful, or what I'm learning about viatutorial.
