CV (pdf)
I am currently in the Computer Science PhD Program at the University of Maryland. My advisor is David Mount. My current research is in the overlap of kinetic data structures and robust statistics. I am also working on a project with Jeff Foster on tracking type qualifiers dynamically. I am an AT&T Labs Fellowship recipient. My mentor at AT&T is Aaron Archer and I am working with him on an implementation of Jain's algorithm for the survivable network design problem.

On the Job Market

I expect to graduate in June 2010 with a Ph.D. I am looking for jobs in academia, research labs, or with innovative companies. Here are my basic statements about what I find interesting and important about teaching and research:

Interests

Aside from Computer Science, I have an interest in Education, especially as it pertains to women in the sciences and other issues in diversity. I also enjoy African and Afro-Cuban percussion and Balinese gamelan (the picture to the right).
