My name's Huy, a proud dad and a programmer.
I founded Hexos Lab, a tiny independent research team of part-timers working on medical image analysis with deep learning.
Before that, I was a Principal Engineer at Cake, Co-founder of PrimeData, Engineering Manager at VUS.
I love tinkering, if it has buttons, screws, or a REPL, I'm in. Occasionally I enjoy writing here too.
