Basic Information

I'm a Master's student in Computer Science at present.

I've been a Teaching Assistant for CSC333: Automata and Computability Theory twice in the past, as an undergraduate. That was a lot of fun.

I work (with Sina Bahram) at the NCSU Information Technology Division's IT Accessibility Office. I am currently moving to the Virtual Computing Lab group.

Relevant Skills

Have developed a whimsical style of Java programming while working on several large collaborative efforts in the language.

Old hand with Eclipse, CVS, and Subversion. I use Eclipse all the time, and I would use version control software all the time too if I weren't so lazy about setting up a server for my personal projects.

Familiar with non-mainstream programming paradigms. List processing is a favorite.

Knowledgable of XML and a host of related technologies, from a variety of perspectives.

Considerable distributed computing experience.

Have written code in a variety of dearly-departed languages, though nowhere near as many as the inestimable Dr. Stallmann has. Suffice it to say, I was not brought up writing Object-Oriented code.

Familiar with the Linux operating system. Gentoo holds a special place in my heart, though recently my work mostly involves the Red Hat family.

My schedule is available in broad strokes, as well as a somewhat dated version of my résumé. Regarding the schedule, it varies on a weekly basis; please email me should you need to meet.
