  I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Economics and Statistics from The National University of Singapore. Realizing that computers interested me more, I left for the United States where I received a Master of Science degree in Computer Science from the Florida State University. I then obtained my Doctor of Philosophy degree in Computer Science from Texas A&M University. There, my research focused on building software architectures to support knowledge sharing in digital libraries.

On returning to Singapore, I accepted a position at the Division of Information Studies, School of Communication and Information, Nanyang Technological University (Singapore). I am currently an Associate Professor and Director of the Master of Science in Information Systems program. My current research interests are in digital library and portal applications, information retrieval, data/Web mining and the use of information technology in education. My other research interests are in the evaluation of information systems and services and user interfaces. I am also an Editor for the Journal of Information Technology Education.  
 
 
Doctor of Philosophy scholarship opportunities available
Scholarships are available to those interested in pursuing a PhD in the areas of mobile information access and sharing. Positions are for August 2010. A good background in computer science, information technology or information science is necessary, as is a willingness to work hard. Knowledge of information retrieval or Web mining techniques is considered a plus. TOEFL scores are required for students whose first language is not English. GRE scores are also required for graduates who did not obtain their degrees from a Singapore university. More information, including application procedures, financial assistance and admission requirements may be found at the Graduate Studies Office Web site.
