I had two excellent advisors, Anna Lubiw and Ian Munro. I started working with Anna after I took her two classes on algorithms and computational geometry during my Master’s, which got me excited about both these areas, and even caused me to switch entire fields of computer science, from distributed systems to theory and algorithms. Anna introduced me to Ian when some of our problems in computational geometry turned out to have large data structural components, and my work with Ian blossomed from there. The sets of problems I worked on with Anna and Ian diverged, and both remain my primary interests. Anna and Ian have had a profound influence throughout my academic career. At the most
