PROFILE
Wesley Ketchum
Wes Sketchum developed and integrated advanced data handling and simulation features across DUNE-DAQ and LDMX-Software repositories, focusing on reliability and maintainability. He enhanced DUNE-DAQ/fdreadoutlibs by refactoring testing utilities and expanding unit test coverage, improving validation of data processing and supporting robust firmware development in C++. In LDMX-Software/ldmx-sw, Wes implemented GENIE event generation with HepMC3 formatting, enabling realistic neutrino-nucleus interaction simulations and end-to-end data flow for analysis. His work also included schema design and XML configuration updates, addressing regressions and stabilizing release workflows. Throughout, he applied CMake, Python, and version control to ensure maintainable, production-ready code.
