Summary of Qualifications:

. Master of Science in Computer Science and Engineering

. 2.5 years of Programming experience in C/C++.

Education:

PhD in Computer Science (currently pursuing) Aug.

2008- present

University of Texas at Arlington, Arlington, TX

Master of Science in Computer Science & Engineering Aug.

2006-Aug. 2008

University of Texas at Arlington, Arlington, TX.

Masters Thesis: Automated Integration of Biomedical Information for the

support of Genome-wide Association Studies.

Thesis work included extracting and integrating information from genomic

databases using various web technologies for the study of SNPs. This data

was used for studying the association of SNPs with susceptibility to

inflammation and other medical conditions. The system is implemented

using Perl and C++. This work was done in collaboration with faculty from

UT Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas, Dallas, TX. This work continued

towards PhD.
