About me:
In the fall of 2009, I am teaching CPSC 310 and working
on curriculum development for CPSC 210.
In the past I have also taught CPSC 101, CPSC 121, and CPSC 211.
I completed my Masters degree in September, 2006. For my thesis research,
I worked in the
Imager Laboratory for
Graphics, Visualization and HCI under the supervision of
Joanna McGrenere in the area of Human
Computer Interaction. My thesis
work is part of the
Aphasia Project,
a multi-disciplinary research project aimed at determining how technology can
support people with aphasia in their daily
lives.
