About Me

Hi, I'm John Bracken. I'm currently living in Toronto, Canada with my wife and daughter. I grew up in various places including Timmins, Ottawa and London in Ontario and Victoria in British Columbia. I went to McMaster University in Hamilton and got an engineering physics degree and then went to graduate school for medical physics at the University of Toronto. I still keep in touch and visit with some friends from university every few weeks or so who are still living relatively close by. I worked in medical imaging research for 15 years in Toronto and Denver, Colorado before making the switch to data engineering a few years ago, but I'm still working with medical data. I enjoy going out to explore the city, trying new restaurants and taking day trips to towns in Southern Ontario with my family. I also enjoy getting down to the waterfront when I get the chance.
