Hello :wave:, welcome to my academic webpage! I am an Assistant Professor at the Department of Computing Sciences, Villanova University. My research interests spans across machine learning/natural language processing, information visualization, health informatics, data provenance, and Internet of Things (IoT)/cyber-physical systems security.

I :mortar_board: graduated with my Ph.D in Computer Science from the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Howard University under the supervision of Dr.Gedare Bloom . For my dissertation, I explored the applications of data provenance to the Internet of Things. A brief description of this project can be found here . You can also access a pdf version of my resume here
