 # Hi I'm Alex Selimov.
 
 I'm a computational materials science PhD turned software developer. 
-I use this blog to write my thoughts about a variety of technical topics.
-My primary languages for building are Rust, Java, Python, and C++.
+My background is primarily in Molecular Dynamics and FEA/FEM, but I've dabbled with thermodynamic equilibrium calculations as well as 6-DOF simulations.
+Most of my time has been spent writing code for HPC including MPI and openMP, although I haven't done that in a few years.
+The languages I currently use for building are Rust, Java, and Python. 
+In another life I worked mainly in C++ and Fortran.
+
+I use this site as a dumping ground for thoughts and tips I find useful.
+Hopefully someone else will find something useful here as well.
 Thanks for stopping by!
