Over the last two and a half decades, Byron has taught astronomy, physics, chemistry, and computer science to students of all ages and backgrounds. His day job is in educational administration, where he aligns with progressive and humanist movements, understanding that human beings are capable of explosive, self-directed, experiential learning once obstacles to their well-being are removed. He earned his undergraduate degree from U.C. Berkeley and his Ph.D. in physics from the California Institute of Technology with a focus on observational cosmology. He has spent a lifetime tinkering with code and data visualization. His company, Data Second, offers novel computational & machine-learning models to clients at the intersection of data science and human relationships.
