About Me

I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science and Applied Mathematics in 2004 from Stony Brook University, Magna Cum Laude. I went on to complete a Master of Science degree in Computer Science, Summa Cum Laude at Columbia University in 2005. Currently I am a PhD candidate in Computer Science at Columbia University.

Most of my spare time is dedicated to Columbia's ACM-W chapter - WICS. While the group itself is meant to advance women in CS, we are also interested in building a supporting and nurturing community within the computer science department as a whole. Other hobbies that I should have more time for include pilates, reading, and singing (sometimes supplemented by random karaoke stints in k-town).
