Opportunities in the Networking Research Groups (NRG)

Thanks for reading this. I am glad you are interested in my positions. I am sure you are aware that there is evidence that universities and corporations sometimes disproportionately hurt the most marginalized people in society, including people of color, women, and LGBTQ+. I am a proud father of a family that is multilingual and multiculture. My research group is part of my extended family, so I strongly encourage applications from individuals that can continue to bring different experiences and perspectives, including those that represent marginalized communities.
