About Me

I am an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at Clemson University and previously a Visiting/Contracting Researcher at Microsoft Research. In addition, I hold an affiliation in Clemson’s Human Factors Institute. I obtained my PhD in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of Notre Dame under the direction of Collin McMillan. My main research interest is in software engineering, focused on productivity, remote work, virtual reality (VR), onboarding, source code comprehension, computer science education, and software engineering for autism. I've also worked in industry as a software engineer for a startup company and at multiple medium sized companies.

I direct the Human Factors Software Engineering (HFSE) research team at Clemson.
