Summary:: I am a Professor in the School of Computer Science. I also have an appointment as Adjunct Associate Professor in the School of Computing and Information Technology of Griffith University in Brisbane, Australia. I was elected President of the Canadian Society for the Computational Studies of Intelligence (May 2005-April 2007).

I was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Regina from August 1991 to June 1996. I was promoted to Associate Professor in 1996. I joined the University of Windsor\'s School of Computer Science in July 2001. I served as Acting Director of the School of Computer Science from January 2004 to December 2004. I am currently the Director of the Centre for Interactive Digital Entertainment Research (CIDER). My Ph.D. is in Computing Science from the University of Alberta in 1991. From the University of Waterloo, I received an M.Math. degree in 1987 and a Joint Honours B.Math degree in Computer Science and Economics (Co-op) in 1984. In 1972, I peeled potatoes for a penny per pound.

My research area is in Artificial Intelligence (specifically, search methods applied to games, pathfinding, goal-oriented behaviour). I have previously worked with TGE 1.5. I added pathfinding code to the engine (C++). Currently, I am working with Torque X (C#). I have rewritten the Torque GUI and hope to make it available soon.
