Future Students
I do not anticipate taking any further
graduate students at this point, but would consider
co-advising a student interested in social, ethical, or political
aspects of CS.

Other Advising
I am the past chair for both CS undergraduate advising and Grad-Group-in-CS advising.
If you could use some advice, or someone to listen,
please get in touch.
I’d especially like
to encourage students to
have a “real” exchange about their future.
Advising isn’t just some formality for getting you
“advising hold” lifted.
