My research interests lie mainly in artificial intelligence, particularly knowledge representation and reasoning.
I completed my PhD in 2005 in the
Computer Science Department at the
University of California, Los Angeles, as a member of the
Automated Reasoning Group.
Between that and January 2013 I was a researcher and then senior researcher at NICTA.
