I am a Senior Associate Knowledge Engineer in Technology Strategy & Innovation at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York where I conduct research in semantic web technologies and text analytics for structuring financial data.  

Previously, I was an Assistant Professor in the Computer Science Department at Hofstra University in Hempstead, NY and a Member of Technical Staff at Bell Labs in Murray Hill, NJ. I have also taught as an Adjunct Professor at Columbia University twice. I received my PhD in Computer Science from Columbia University in 2008, where I worked in the IRT Lab under the advisment of Henning Schulzrinne.
