John Stachurski is a chiropractor with 13 years of clinical experience running Wellness Family Chiropractic in Madisonville, Kentucky, who moonlights as a quantitative researcher and code contributor in stochastic dynamics and numerical methods. He combines hands-on patient care and chiropractic expertise with active open-source work on the QuantEcon project, contributing ARMA and Kalman filter implementations in Julia and improvements across Python resources. His background in biology (B.S., Life University) and a Doctor of Chiropractic informs a pragmatic, analytical approach to problem solving that spans anatomy to algorithms. As a cofounder-level contributor on QuantEcon, he brings domain knowledge in time series, optimization, and signal processing to teaching-oriented code and library development. Notably, he balances a small-practice clinical career with meaningful back-end development on widely used quantitative-economics toolkits, demonstrating rare interdisciplinary depth.
