I am an undergraduate student in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics and in the School of Computer Science at McGill University. I expect to graduate in January 2011 with a B.Sc. in Mathematics and Computer Science.

My research interests are in algorithmic game theory, algorithms, and machine learning.
