Profile
I received my B.S. in Computer Science at the State University of New York at Buffalo in 1992. I worked as a lab assistant and as a teaching assistant during my education at SUNY Buffalo. Then I worked for a chain of companies (by acquisition) where most of my focus was on transaction processing software.
At Illinois I've been working for Professor Kale in a variety of research capacities.
My primary focus is on scaling our classical and quantum molecular dynamics codes to peta-scale supercomputers.
