This site has only been briefly updated since the Summer of 2009, so most pages are significantly out of date. I hope to update the site before the end of the 2011-12 school year.

I am an assistant professor of Computer Science at Dominican University in River Forest, Illinois.

My PhD candidate research focused on computer-based assistive technology that can help cognitive impaired individuals lead more independent lives.
