📌 2020 pin update!

I'm Mary. Medical doctor by day, low-level developer by night. I enjoy taking both mechanical or biological things apart and putting them back together again.

My recent major public projects mainly concern console emulation, see: http://github.com/MerryMage

Other interests:
- Radiophysics, Radiology, Radiotherapy, and associated fields
- Audio and DSP
- Compilers, JITs and type systems

DMs open!
