University Service<br />

I serve my department and college in several capacities. For example, I was the first coordinator of our new<br />

Industrial Affiliates Program (IAP). Each year, among other activities, I organized a Career day in the Fall<br />

and a <strong>Research</strong> day in the Spring. I have also been on the College’s Natural Sciences <strong>Curriculum</strong> Committee<br />

(NSCC), where a great number of changes to our CS curriculum have been approved (e.g. changes to our<br />

prerequisites structure, new courses on security, networking, web, etc.).<br />

I am also the first to assume the new position of Director of Laboratory Operations—my responsibilities<br />

included managing our Computer Science teaching and research labs, supervising our technical staff, and<br />

overseeing equipment and software purchases.<br />
