DevSuki Development Team

Jeremy Avnet (resume CV) earned a BA in Pure Mathematics with honors from the University of California at Santa Cruz in 2000. Afterwards, he programmed for the experimental economics department and later became a system administrator for two Santa Cruz based startups. In 2002, Jeremy joined the PhD program in Computer Science at the University of New Mexico to study the new science of complex adaptive systems. As a graduate researcher, he produced a paper on mathematically evaluating trust in social networks. In 2003, Jeremy began studying the mathematical structure of the Friendster social network with Matt Chisholm and Jonathan Moore. Ultimately, this collaboration lead to the genesis of Mosuki. In 2004, Jeremy went to China to study with John Holland and the Santa Fe Institute where he co-authored a paper about the effect of reputation in Prisoner's Dilemma games. He also designed and built the Mosuki web cluster.

Matt Chisholm (resume) earned a BA in Pure Mathematics with honors from the University of California at Santa Cruz in 2000. In 2002, Matt earned a MA in Theoretical Linguistics with a focus in Syntax & Semantics, also from the University of California at Santa Cruz. While in the Lingustics program, he helped re-design the curriculum for Computational Lingusitics course, and went on to be the teaching assistant for the course. After graduating from the Linguistics program, Matt settled in San Francisco, taking various user-interface focused jobs, including a complete redesign of the BitTorrent client. Matt has been programming since he was 11, and is responsible for Mosuki's AJAX interface.

Ross Cohen (resume) grew up in New York City where he attended Stuyvesant High School. He graduated from Carnegie Mellon University with a Bachelors in Mathematics and Computer Science in 1999. Afterwards he fled to California in search of better weather. Ross was the manager and tech lead for the Linux kernel team at Akamai and holds a networking patent for developing their unique testing infrastructure. Ross started out his career at Quantum doing hard drive simulation. In addition to professional work, he has contributed to a number of Open Source projects, including being the primary author of Codeville, a distributed version control system.
