About

I am a PhD candidate at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia. I am working in the field of Information Retrieval, with Associate Professor J. Shane Culpepper and Associate Professor Falk Scholer. My current research interests include distributed IR, selective search, dynamic pruning, compression, index efficiency, and evaluation. I also have a broad interest in operating systems, data structures, and algorithms.

Previously, I worked on location-aware retrieval strategies for efficient and effective location-aware web search. I have also done some work on query log analysis, and automated question answering.
