I am a Post-Doctoral Scholar in the area of Process Knowledge Representation and Reasoning, in the NSERC-CREATE Program in Healthcare Operations and Information Management, hosted by Prof. Wojteck Michalowski (primary supervisor), Telfer School of Management, University of Ottawa, and Prof. Vedat Verter (co-supervisor), Desautels Faculty of Management, McGill University. I am a core member of the Mobile Emergency Triage (MET) research group.    (3XYZ)

My research involves a sub-area of Artificial Intelligence dealing with how process knowledge can be represented symbolically and manipulated in order to allow computers to make automated inferences. I received my Ph.D (2012) in Industrial Engineering from the University of Toronto, under the supervision of Prof. Michael Gruninger. Most recently (2011-2012), as a Post-Doctoral Fellow at the Center for Technology in Government, University of Albany-SUNY, I contributed to the development of information-sharing networks to support consumer choice as part of research funded by the US National Science Foundation. In the past few years, I also worked for high-tech companies on various projects.    (3XZ0)

I am also involved in the activities of advising graduate students and lecturing courses at Telfer School of Management, University of Ottawa, as a Visiting Professor there.    (3NWM)
