I am a fourth year P.h.D student interested in medical image processing and numerical methods. Before coming to Utah, I completed a Master's degree in computer science at the University of Montana .

I currently work as a graduate research assistant at the Scientific Computing and Imaging Institute for Dr. Guido Gerig .
