I have been on the faculty of Computer Science at Duke since 2001. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of California, Berkeley and my B.S. in Computer Science from Stanford University. My research interests include computer science education, intelligent control and robotics, reinforcement learning, and social networks.
