Clayton comes to UVM after many years in industry—early on developing systems for analysis and modeling of finance and operations in manufacturing, and later developing a SaaS platform for publication and distribution of equity research. Along the way, he designed and developed other systems including a HIPAA-compliant e-commerce platform for durable medical goods with insurance verification and billing integration; multi-warehouse fulfillment and inventory management systems; and a data management system for SEC compliance and post-trade analytics. Clayton began teaching in 2020 and joined the CS department on a full-time basis in 2022. He really enjoys teaching.
