Vita:
        Birth date:    May 23, 1970
        Birthplace:    Monticello, Indiana
        Gender:        Female
        Citizenship:   United States

Research Interests:
    My research focus centers in compilation, dynamically compiled languages (Java/CIL), and effi-
    cient, adaptive, execution using distributed and resource-constrained resources. My recent research
    builds upon and extends these techniques to enable Vertically Integrated VirtualizAtion (VIVA):
    set of techniques and methodologies that enable full-system performance specialization and opti-
    mization by exploiting emerging virtualization technologies. My other interests include projects
    and programs that mentor, support, and encourage young people from underrepresented groups
    (especially women!) to consider and pursue computer science.
