Work Experience
Post-Doctoral Researcher at the Chester F. Carlson Center for Imaging Science: March 2008-Present
Researcher in the Biomedical Imaging Laboratory supporting existing research efforts and initiating new research directions. Projects include multimodal image registration and display, eye-tracking for medical image interpretation, high-dynamic range display models, software emulation of image acquisition physics and detector systems for generation of realistic synthetic images, and feature detection and identification in medical images.
Teaching Assistant at the Rochester Institute of Technology: Sept. 2004-
Provided teaching support for the following courses in the Imaging Science department: Senior Project Design, Interaction Between Light and Matter, Imaging Science Fundamentals, Statistical Pattern Classification, Imaging System Analysis, and Optics.
Graduate Student Researcher at the Rochester Institute of Technology: June 2006-
Work involving collaboration between RIT and VirtualScopics (www.virtualscopics.com) developing a Magnetic Resonance Imaging Simulator to facilitate the development of new pulse sequences. Additional work performed on simulation of PET data sets and multimodal imaging.
Research at University Hospital at SUNY Upstate: May 2003-Aug. 2004, June 2005-Present
Work with faculty from Upstate, Ithaca College, Syracuse University, and RIT on multimodal imaging techniques. Specifically, non-rigid registration of PET, CT and MRI breast images, and fusion for visualization techniques for presenting the registered data sets to radiologists. See publications for more information.
Princeton Review Teacher for Hyperlearning LSAT Course: May 2004-
Teach classes, of up to 27 students, techniques to improve their scores on the LSAT exam. Specific area of specialty is the logic section. Also includes smaller group sessions.

Center For System Assurance: September 2001-June 2003 (http://www.csa.syr.edu/)
Research assistant studying network security. I was responsible for equipment installation, and evaluation. Also included managing Unix based clusters, and helping to evaluate the usefulness and effectiveness of software.
Internship at Xerox: Summer 2002
Developing an application in C/C++ for offline detection and identification of features in a single wavelength yellow light line camera image. Required efficient coding to minimize execution speed. Included image analysis, image processing, and use of the Intel Image Processing Libraries.
Internship at Xerox: Summer 2001
Extensive C/C++ programming working on TWAIN drivers for DigiPath scanner and the control program for the DocuImage 620S scanner. Included modifications to C/C++ code to implement Unicode standard for support of eight languages selectable at run time, testing and fixing of memory leaks, evaluating and fixing numerous programming errors of various types, identification and removal of obsolete code, testing new features, and designing and fixing problems in the user interface. Utilized DigiPath applications to evaluate and test scanner software.
