Who Am I?
- Research: Professor in the Electrical Engineering & Computer Sciences Department at the University of California, Berkeley, working primarily in the area of online education with the ACE Lab; ACM Distinguished Scientist, IEEE Senior Member
- Education: Winner of the 2015 ACM Karl V. Karlstrom Outstanding Educator Award for my efforts in scaling software engineering education, Faculty Advisor to the UC Berkeley MOOCLab, member of the edX Technical Advisory Committee, Berkeley Digital Pedagogy Fellow and Certified Online Facilitator
- Writing: Co-author (with Prof. Dave Patterson) of the award-winning software engineering textbook Engineering Software as a Service: An Agile Approach Using Cloud Computing, and the co-creator of the longest-running MOOCs on edX on this topic.
- Diversity in CS: UC Berkeley Equity Advisor, Diversity Officer for CS Graduate Admissions, UC Berkeley representative in CMD-IT FLIP Alliance, faculty sponsor of CS Scholars program. As a Cuban-American (long ago, my father’s family owned the Tropicana), I am particularly passionate about diversity in CS and about the value of education, as my mom’s memoirs suggest.
Please note: Read these caveats before contacting me, as I cannot reply to certain types of inquiries. Thank you.
