Stanford research information below.

I am a doctoral student in the Artificial Intelligence Lab in the Computer Science Department at Stanford. My advisor is Mike Genesereth (Logic Group), and my research is in collaboration with Deborah McGuinness (RPI). During my days at Stanford (and for a while before that!) I was also a Computer Scientist in the Artificial Intelligence Center at SRI International.

My dissertation research involves explaining task execution and machine learning in adaptive systems, to make learning-based systems more trustworthy for users.

I will be graduating in March 2011, and I am currently applying for research positions in the Bay Area, CA.
