About Me

I was born in upstate New York and lived in a small town called Endicott. Eventually I moved to Cary, which is just forty minutes away, and have lived there for the past 18 years. I'm currently studying BME and plan on going to medical school.

Name Pronunciation

My name is pretty easy to pronounce. "Jeff" rhymes with "ref," as in referee. "Ord" rhymes with "Ford," the car company.

MatLab Demonstrations

The 2D plot demonstration was my favorite. It included a lot of examples about important plots, providing both descriptions of the graphs and scripts of them. This was informative, and will also be very useful in the future when I need a good reference or starting point for creating certain 2D plots.
