I am the Assistant Director of Adelphi University's Innovation Center, and an Adjunct Professor of Computer Science. I am currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Computer Science in an accelerated master's program at Adelphi University. I am a quick learner with a positive attitude, known for problem-solving, creativity, and attention to detail. I’m eager to apply my skills to tackle complex challenges and contribute to impactful projects.

"I have known Chris since he was in the 10th grade. As a high school teacher of 16 years I can honestly say he is THE standout student. He is incredibly smart, hardworking and thoughtful. My first realization about him came during a Robotics competition, his first ever competition. Chris’s robot did not make the cut to compete. Instead of either staying home or just showing up to be “present”, Chris brought his robot and worked on it for 8 hours straight. He befriended other teams, seeking help with ideas and problem solving solutions. At the end of the day he had a well built and functioning robot. I have seen many other students attempt the same feat but none have repeated it. Chris has helped me develop curriculum for my own Video Game Design class and problem solve many issues over the years. He still takes the time to visit with my robotics team to this day."

"Chris has a proven ability to learn advanced technical ideas, explain them clearly to others, and build upon them in his own work. He is an engaging speaker who masterfully communicates complex ideas in professional presentations, and a supportive and outgoing colleague who elevates any group in which he is involved."
