Hey blogosphere!

My name’s Jake Knigge and this blog’s name is Eggink Blog. It’s a place to ink-up (or markdown) some (quasi) egghead-ed topics from statistics, machine learning, mathematics, computer science and physics.

Anyways, here’s a little bit about me…

I am a Nebraska-native turned Colorado-convert since 2001. I graduated from the University of Colorado in 2013 after studying quantitative finance. I worked at Deloitte for a couple of years following college as a consultant. In 2014, Angela and I got married. It was a heckuva a party. I changed jobs in 2015 and started working for CoBank, an agricultural lender, in Denver, Colorado. This my current working home.

Some of my hobbies are…

• snowboarding with Angela,
• using quantitative tools to tell stories and solve problems,
• trying to understand the world through the “languages” of math and science,
• trying to understand languages (Italian, German, and French),
• trail running with Maya (and Angela and Raven, when they’ll partake),
• reading,
• learning and understanding the learning process,
• meditating and stretching (i.e., “yoga-ing”),
• listening to music,
• playing guitar, banjo, and mandolin.

I have a traditional website that lives here.
