Education:

University of Alberta, Canada Computer Science MS, 2011

I am a PhD student at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. I am a member of DSRG group working under supervision of Prof. Elke Rundensteiner. My research interests are at the intersection of text streams analysis and social sensing and explore the challenges of real-time learning and inference on social networks, and applying machine learning techniques to aggregate big streams of social media data to discover trends, events, and influencers.
