I am an accomplished Computer Scientist with over 11 years of industry experience in advanced technology development. During this time, I have authored 3 books and filed over 25 patents; my work on auditory interfaces was profiled in the September 1996 issue of Scientific American. I have leading edge expertise in Web standards, auditory interfaces and scripting languages. I participate in numerous W3C working groups and authored Aural CSS (ACSS); in 1996 I wrote the first ACSS implementation. I have led the definition of XML specifications for the next generation WWW including XForms, XML Events, and Compound Document Formats such as X+V.
Develop technologies that drive the future of the Web toward eyes-free, ubiquitous information access. Speech is the next natural dimension in user interfaces, and I am developing application frameworks that combine speech technologies with the power of the Web to deliver innovative multimodal solutions that are available anytime, anywhere.

My favorite hobby is recreational mathematics. I enjoy working on puzzles, especially those that involve an intuitive feel for mathematics. One of the things I enjoyed doing the most in the early eighties was to solve the Rubiks cube faster than anyone else around me, on an average of about thirty seconds! During the last few years, discovering Zome Systems for building complex polyhedra has helped rekindle my interest in polyhedral geometry. I am also interested in linguistics and can speak about eight languages, including French, German and several Indian languages.
