Daniel Sissom, Ph.D.
Chief Executive Officer / Developer
Dr. Sissom studied physics as an undergrad at Tennessee Tech University, doing research in nuclear physics both on campus and at the HRIBF particle accelerator at Oak Ridge National Lab. At Vanderbilt University, he specialized in galactic- and extragalactic-scale computational astronomy, earning a master's degree in 2012 and doctoral degree in 2015. As part of his research, Dr. Sissom studied galaxy formation and dynamics, supermassive black hole mergers, evolution of the early Universe, and the simulation and initialization techniques required to accurately model these complex systems.
At Binary Coalescence, Dr. Sissom has enjoyed the opportunities he has had to work on a diverse set of projects. Running a small business requires having a hand in every aspect of the company, from inception and development of the primary projects to web development and accounting. In development of these projects, Daniel has further developed his skills in software development, data analysis, networking protocols, web development, machine learning, and blockchain development.
