Braden is currently a senior at the University of Kentucky majoring in Computer Science with a minor in Mathematics. Continuing the work on the Beam Bourbon Barrel Analysis project, his goal is to develop an application that will automate the data collection process to determine why bourbon barrels have been bursting for centuries. He is excited to work on a problem that has a real-world impact and will provide valuable experience in machine learning and computer vision. Outside of work, he enjoys weightlifting and playing with his puppy Zola. He hopes that more are given the opportunity to work with such an intelligent team and develop their skills as computer scientists.
