About /me
I have been working professionally in the area of High Performance and Scientific Computing since 2001. Currently, I am a Scientific Computing Consultant at LSU HPC and LONI. I am also a Ph. D. student in the Department of Computer Science at LSU.
My many academic interests include shared memory parallelism on tightly coupled systems, and I am actively researching aspects of transactional memory with Dr. Konstantin Busch. I also enjoy exploring the deep links between foundational Computer Science and HPC, as well as questions relating to graph theory.
