Biography

    My research background is in the dynamic field of computer architecture. Low-power embedded systems are particularly interesting, the design space requires innovative, elegant solutions.

    I'm also passionate about education pedagogy. I dabble in computer forensics and cybersecurity. Finally, I'm a champion for improving pathways for students to enter into the field of computing. I strive to be a champion for equity in all aspects.

    My teaching philosophy is to promote student engagement in all aspects of academics. My classes are largely project-based, "flipped" classrooms with an emphasis of hands-on education in the classroom.
