I am an associate professor in the Department of Computer Engineering at Santa Clara University. I started teaching at Santa Clara in the fall of 2000. Before that, I served as an assistant professor for one year at Clark University in Massachusetts, in the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science in 1998 from the University of California, San Diego, in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, where I worked with Bill Griswold.
