I am an assistant professor of computer science at the University of Oklahoma in the Gallogly College of Engineering.
My research covers a broad range of student issues across computing education, as well as across other disciplines. Some of my ongoing research involves first-year student issues, integrating AI technology in non-CS educational contexts, and studying populations of students as they progress through undergraduate CS. My other research interests going forward involve the use of generative AI models in providing scalable supports for students learning computer science concepts.
