I am a PhD student at Iowa State University. I work with Dr. Robyn Lutz in the Laboratory for Software Safety in the Department of Computer Science. My research interests include Software safety in safety-critical systems and empirical evaluation and prediction of reliability in evolving software product lines. I am also interested in network based intrusion detection techniques.
