Introduction
I am postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Computer Sciences at the University of Texas at Austin. Hook'em Horns!
This spring I am continuing my work in the Laboratory for Advanced Systems Research. I am currently looking for employment in either academic or industrial postdoctoral positions.
Research
I work on the Lagniappe Programming Environment, a programming environment for multi-* architectures. More information and status can be found on the Lagniappe blog. Lagniappe evolved from the Shangri-La project.
Previously, I studied the performance and costs of various different load balancing schemes for packet processing systems. I contributed to the design of a framework for making interface implementation selection extensible when dealing with multiple hardware types. I also contributed to making the case for run-time adaptation for both power and provisioning cost reduction.

Hobbies
Since I broke my foot attempting to train for my second marathon, I've now decided cycling will be my fitness oriented hobby. Golf is a hobby I've had for a while now, and I hope to continue playing and improving.
Another hobby of mine that I have had for a while is cooking. I love food. I love to eat, and I love to cook. I have started to put together a collection of recipes that I enjoy. I have gotten these from my family, my friends, and lots of people and places in between. Check out the repository.
