My name is Sam Jett. I recently graduated from the University of Oklahoma with my MS in mechanical engineering, with research focus on heart valve biomechanics and microstructural imaging. Since graduating, I’ve been working as a data scientist with a biomedical device startup called Modulim.
This website documents the projects and activities I’m passionate about; it serves as a portfolio of my experiences and interests. By reading through it, I hope that you will learn a little bit more about what I have done and what I want to do.
After reading, I hope that you get in touch via the contact link at the bottom, so I can learn a little bit more about you. Thank you!

My friend Zach Schuermann and I recently started a blog called Open_Bits. We plan to use it to share:
Technical solutions to software issues we have encountered
Clarifications of common processes in using and modifying software
Other topics that interest or intrigue us 😄
I would like to acknowledge many people for their assistance and support.
My parents and friends, because I wouldn’t have made it where I am today without them.
Matt McCraney, for believing in me and helping me to achieve my goals inside and outside of Crossfit.
Dr. Chung-Hao Lee, for mentoring my research and his constant passion to help me learn and grow.
Zach Schuermann, for his generous consulting on any computer-related issue and his help with this website.
