I am an Assistant Professor in the Computer & Information Sciences department at the University of Delaware.

Teaching

Research

I work closely with Keith Decker in the multi-agent systems lab on distributed constraint optimization approaches to multi-agent scheduling. I am also working with Michela Taufer and the GCLab on optimization problems within large-scale distributed computing.
