I am a Computational Social Scientist in BAE Systems Intelligence Innovation Division. I recently became an Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Division of Human-Centered Computing at Clemson University.

My research background is in human computer interaction, virtual humans, immersive virtual environments, and 3D user interactions. In particular, my past research focused on the comparison of human-human interaction to human-virtual human interaction in the context of social psychology. My current work at BAE includes the development and application of ABMs to ongoing political and social issues, including the effect of policy change on regional sentiment. 

Prior to joining BAE, I received my PhD in Computer Science from University of North Carolina at Charlotte working in the Future Computing Lab. I received a BS in Computer Science in 2000 and an MS in Human Computer Interaction in 2002 from the Georgia Institute of Technology.
