Bio

I'm a senior applied scientist in the Bedrock team at Amazon Web Services (AWS). My work is situated at the intersection of human-computer interaction, machine learning, and data science. Before joining AWS, I was a professor in the University of Tennessee, Knoxville and a postdoctoral researcher at the University of California, Irvine. As a PhD student, I spent several summers with the Next-Generation Productivity group at Microsoft Research and the Emerging Technologies team at Mozilla Research. I hold a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Waterloo where I was a member of the Human-Computer Interaction Lab.
