● Quantitative Consulting
The independent practice of Andre Zapico — applied mathematics, computational statistics, and software engineering for research and industry.
Work spans statistical software, scientific computing, signal processing, and computer vision.
● Currently taking on quantitative, computational, and software engineering work
● About
Andre Zapico is a quantitative consultant working across applied mathematics, computational statistics, and software engineering. His graduate work was in radar signal processing, and much of his career since has been spent building production statistical and scientific software in C and C++.
Recent work includes performance engineering for econometric and time series software at SAS, statistical research support for cardiovascular medicine research at the University of Michigan, and applied modeling for research groups in genomics, clinical research, and sports analytics.
Likely LLC is expanding into computer vision and applied signal processing, and is currently bringing on additional expertise in that area. Ongoing interests include early-stage work on low-cost wireless devices for humanitarian and public-health use.
