I am an Associate Teaching Professor in the Department of Computer Science at North Carolina State University. As a teaching-track faculty member, my primary responsibility involves teaching. I am currently course coordinator for the CSC316 Data Structures & Algorithms course. I also serve as a Technical Advisor and mentor for the CSC Department’s Senior Design Center.
