Charles Aylward

I am a software developer, designer, and researcher living in the San Francisco bay area. My primary interests are data visualization, exploratory analysis, complex automation, autonomous systems, computational behavior (game AI), game design, and in general, robust software.

Since 1995, I have been an avid user and promoter of GNU/Linux and open source software. I've written software and designed systems for numerous industries including education, telecommunications, observational astronomy, and robotics. I have helped bootstrap several startups and am available for short- and long-term consulting services.
