Biography

I am a Professor of Computer Science at the University of Regina. My research is focused on the development of tools to help people deal with and navigate complex information spaces, in application areas as diverse as environmental decision support, eyewitness identification, multimedia composition, and healthcare. I completed my PhD at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, Canada in 1999 with the dissertation entitled “A New Paradigm for Exploration in Computer-Aided Visualization”. Before beginning my doctoral studies, I worked on Benoit Mandlebrot's Fractals project at the IBM T. J. Watson Research Centre and Yale University. I am taking a leading role in the areas of outreach and education. I am a member of CIPS (Canadian Information Processing Society) and a senior member of the ACM (Association for Computing Machinery). I serve as Canada's representative to IFIP (International Federation for Information Processing) Technical Committee 3 (Education).
