I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Texas A&M University. I was born and raised in cool (and sometimes cold) Quebec City, Canada. I completed a Bachelor of Engineering degree at McGill University and a Master of Science degree at Cornell University. I received my Doctor of Philosophy degree from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in Electrical Engineering.
My research interests are in the areas of communication and information theory, decision and control, computer systems and networks, statistical inference, learning, and applied probability. Recently, I have been studying the efficient design of sensor networks from a system-theoretic perspective and the fundamental limits of wireless communication systems under stringent delay constraints. My academic work has appeared in a variety of outlets, including the IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, the IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, the IEEE Journal of Selected Areas in Communications, and the IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications.
In my spare time, I enjoy reading and practicing sports, especially martial arts, snowboarding and biking.
My office is in the Zachry Engineering Center (ZEC). The Interactive Campus Map for Texas A&M University shows where buildings are located in regard to a map.

Texas A&M University provides a great environment for students in Electrical and Computer Engineering. It has a strong academic program and very interesting research. While I encourage interested students to apply, you should know that I cannot help you get admitted or comment on your chances of being offered admission. Furthermore, I do not typically commit to students without having worked with them at Texas A&M University. I wish I had time to respond to every student that sends me an email, but unfortunately I don't. Finally, I do not offer summer internships to international students.
