I am a Research Assistant Professor working at the Center for Unified Biometrics and Sensors (CUBS) and the Center of Excellence for Document Analysis and Recogntion (CEDAR), since October 2011. The centers are affilliated with the Computer Science and Engineering department at the University at Buffalo, SUNY (UB).

I completed my PhD in 2009 at UB, and was an NSF-sponsored postdoctoral researcher at the Computer Science department at the University of Rochester, working with Dr. Chris Brown in Computer Vision. Before that, I completed my master's degree in Computer and Information Science at the University of Pennsylvania and my Electrical Engineering undergraduate degree at the University of Lagos, Nigeria.
