About Me

I am just starting my third year of graduate school. My research interests include distributed systems, high performance computing, and bioinformatics. I am a part of the Virginia Center for Grid Research where I am studying under Professor Andrew Grimshaw.

I currently serve as theTea Time Tsarina. In the past I have also served as the Graduate Chair of the ACM-W (2007) at UVa and the CS Representative to the Graduate Engineering Student Council (2007/2008).

I graduated from Mississippi State University in 2006 with a Bachelors of Science in Computer Science and Mathematics as well as minors in German and General Business. Along with Mississippi, I grew up in Michigan, Alaska, and Poland.

Outside of research and classes, I make time for dance and sports. I am a member of the University Swing, Salsa, and Ballroom Clubs. I play intramural volleyball and ultimate frisbee as well as some racquetball and wallyball.
