I recieved a Ph.D. from UC Davis in an interdisciplinary program that blended biology and the social sciences. I conducted research in Tanzania, East Africa to investigate how culture influences cooperation. I also have conducted numerous experiments in the area of behavioral economics to understand altruism, fairness, and cooperation. My teaching experience was diverse: criminology, social psychology, statistics, anthropology, and conflict studies.

I have recently completed a M.S. in Health Informatics from UC Davis. This field is the intersection of the sciences of health/medicine, computers, and human behavior. I am excited about how to use data, information and knowledge to improve medical decision making.

After a diverse and interesting career, I have become a specialist in healthcare outcomes research and informatics. My focus includes healthcare performance measurement, data/text mining, and business intelligence systems.
