I have a bachelor's degree in computer science and math from Trinity Christian College in Palos Heights, IL. I am currently a Ph.D. candidate in computer science at the University of Illinois.

I expect to finish my dissertation in the spring or early summer of 2007. My vita is available in pdf format.
