I am an Associate Professor of computer science and engineering within the James Worth Bagley College of Engineering, Mississippi State University. I work with data stakeholders on their tasks while at the same time delving the limits of visualization. To these ends, I focus on visualization theory, interactive visual analytics, and applications such as bioinformatics and security visualization. Fundamentally, I help others solve their problems. I teach courses revolving around visualization and visual analytics; in addition, I frequently teach the computer graphics and game design courses.
