About

Hi, I’m Ganesh Swami and this is my little corner on the web. I’m in my mid-twenties and live in Vancouver, BC.

My interests, broadly:

  • Programming: I’m multilingual, inevitable in a modern world. These days, I mostly program in a mixture of Python and C++. I also program in C for the occasional tight loop. In a past life, I wrote my own emacs-lisp blogging software.
  • Math: Mostly linear algebra. I’m fascinated by implementation details of Linear Algebra interfaces such as BLAS and LINPACK.
  • Cooking: where I practice Kaizen. Small, incremental steps towards continuous improvement.
  • Travel: I’ve made it a point to make atleast one trip every year. 10+ countries so far. Next on my list: Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand.

I studied Engineering Physics at Simon Fraser University. I currently work as a Software Engineer at Zymeworks Inc., a protein therapeutics optimization company. This website is powered by Wordpress. I use a modified version of a theme called Letterhead. Fast, Clean and Simple. The ‘g’ icon for this website comes from the GiNaC project. See this page for a list of plugins I use on this site.

Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.
