I am a Principal Technical Advisor at Tableau Software. I work on special projects, both technical and organizational, for the Chief Development Officer.
I earned my doctorate in Computer Science from Stanford University. My research (when I have time for it) focuses on foundational areas of information visualization and data analytics, including graphical perception, algorithms for automating the graphical design of visualizations, and the design of compilers and runtimes for data analytics and visualization.
