Mark Urich
Software engineer and scientist.
I am a problem solver at heart; I enjoy spending hours fixing things and solving puzzles. After over 8 years of working in an academic research lab, generating mountains of genomic data, I decided to change course and pursue a field that allows me to make better use of my passion. I began a career in research with the goal to continuously expand my knowledge while solving real world problems. With the amount of data being produced these days, I feel that I can accomplish that goal better through software engineering.
