I am an Assistant Professor of Computer Science and Engineering at Oakland University.  My research passion lies in interdisciplinary and collaborative research on powerful computational models, algorithms, image analysis and interactive visualization tools for medical imaging, brain science and life science. I believe that application-driven contributions to expand computer science to interdisciplinary research will become more and more important in exploring and understanding scientific and health-related problems.

I am the faculty coordinator of Oakland's ACM-W chapter. Please find our website here and join us!

I completed my Ph.D. and Sc.M. in the Computer Science Department at Brown, where I was advised by Professors David H. Laidlaw. I received a B.S. degree (with high distinction) in Computer Science from University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
