Bonjour!

I am an associate professor at Purdue University. Depending on the semester, I teach either ECE301, ECE438 or ECE662. Researchwise, I am interested in a bunch of different things related to signal processing and computational mathematics. I am the director of the Computational Imaging Laboratory (MSEE393) and I am a member of the CNSIP research area. In my spare time, I learn to bake/cook low-protein (low-phenylalanine) foods for PKU. My role model is Brenda Winiarski, the amazing woman behing "Cook For Love".

"How do you pronounce your name?"

I get that question all the time, so here is the phonetic transcription:

$ mirej \text{ }but\tilde{\epsilon} $.

To hear it, listen to the following sound file .
