I am an associate professor in the department of Mathematics, Statistics, and Computer Science at Monmouth College. I got my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Washington University in St. Louis under Kunal Agrawal and Angelina Lee and my B.S. in mathematics and computer science from Truman State University. My research involves both theoretical and systems aspects of parallel computing, including scheduling, runtime systems, and dynamic program analysis. I am also interested in interdisciplinary data science, especially machine learning for text analysis.
