I am currently working as a Machine Learning Engineer for IBM as a part of the Watson Natural Language Understanding (NLU) team where we are working to develop and operationalize next-generation artificial intelligence and machine learning systems for advanced text analytics. In addition to supporting the public NLU API in the IBM Cloud, we also develop a number of advanced NLP technologies that are leveraged by various other IBM teams and solutions.
Before joining IBM, I earned my Ph.D. in Computer Science under Dr. Charles Anderson at Colorado State University . My graduate research was focused on the development of novel machine learning methods for modeling signals and time series. In particular, I worked for the CSU Brain-Computer Interfaces Laboratory on an NSF-funded grant to develop machine learning techniques for analyzing Electroencephalography (EEG) signals in noninvasive Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs). I am also the principal software d
