Welcome to my window on the world.

I recently successfully defended my PhD thesis in Computer Science at the University of New Brunswick. My area of research interest is data warehousing and OLAP operations. My supervisors are: Dr. Owen Kaser, UNB Saint John and Dr. Daniel Lemire, UQAM. My thesis title:

Properties and Applications of Diamond Cubes.

For the past seven years I have worked as an instructor/lecturer in the department of Computer Science and Applied Statistics at UNB Saint John. I have taught intro to programming courses in Java and Matlab, database theory, high speed computing, programming languages, discrete mathematics, and data structures/algorithms for Engineers.

I find all things computer-related interesting, especially databases and data structures.
