Ph.D., Cornell University Department of Computer Science

 

My thesis is on decision theory, in particular regret minimization. I also have a minor in econometrics / microeconomics. I received my B.Sc. in Computer Science (with Co-op work experience) from the University of British Columbia in 2009.
