Personal History

I received my undergraduate degree in mechanical and aerospace engineering from Cornell University in 1994. After working in information technology industry I resumed my formal education at the University of Maryland. I completed my doctoral work in epidemiology focusing on genetic epidemiology and aging.

Research Interests

My research interests focus on the epidemiology of aging. I am particularly interested in the genetics of aging and the interaction with environmental or social factors. I am interested in epidemiological design and statistical issues, particularly as they are related to longitudinal study designs.
