Biographical Sketch

I am a Graduate Research Assistant at the Trust Laboratory at the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP). I am currently pursuing a M.S. in Computer Science at UTEP. I received my B.S. in Computer Science from UTEP in 2010 with Honors for Outstanding Senior in Computer Science.

My work has been focused on provenance information visualization. Primarily to develop an effective way to organize and navigate between scientific and information visualization related to provenance. My software development focus has been on the Trust Lab's tool Probe-It! and web based software in support of this tool, such as the Visualization Cache.
