Background	I was a graduate student at the University of Illinois at Chicago.  During this time I worked as a Research Assistant for the Electronic Visualization Laboratory. I came to UIC specifically because of my desire to pursue research in virtual reality at EVL. I obtained my Bachelor of Computer Science at Concordia University in Montreal.
