In 1992, I moved half-way across the planet to attend Duke University, where I studied Computer Science and Physics. I then attended graduate school at the Department of Computer Science of the University of Toronto. My dissertation research was on numerical methods for weather prediction problems. From February to December 2001, I was a post-doctoral fellow at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, Boulder, Colorado. Since Januray 2002, I have been a post-doctoral fellow at the Department of Mathematics of the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
