About me
I joined the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science faculty in September 2003. From 2000-2003, I was a post-doctoral researcher at Hewlett-Packard Laboratories in Palo Alto, CA. I am currently a faculty member in the Department of Computer Science at Carleton.

Research
My research interests include streaming media, measurement and performance analysis of computer and communication networks, and queueing theory. I focus on the intersection of application performance and network performance, determining how the two interact with and react in the presence of each other. Currently, I'm interested in multimedia networking: specifically, how can we determine the (subjective) quality of a media stream from network- and application-level measurements (that is, without having to ask the user directly).
Miscellaneous

I appeared in an article about mentoring in the San Jose Mercury News in July 2003.
