I hold a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, where I focused on Natural Language Processing, Machine Reading and Machine Learning. My primary research involved an investigation in what is deemed the "knowledge acquisition bottleneck" - the overwhelming cost involved in manual construction of semantically rich knowledge resources (lexicon and ontology).

If you are interested in reading more, my publications can be found here.

In my personal life, I entertain myself with good BBQ, good whiskey and good tabletop games. I self-publish advanced games with a whimsical feel under the label Goat-friendly Games.

I provide freelance data science consulting services for Natural Language Understanding, Knowledge Engineering and Semantic Reasoning. If you want to chat, hit me up over here.
