My name is Kathryn Patterson. I have been a software developer for Troove Inc. for the last two and a half years, but will be job hunting in the coming weeks.
Prior to my current job, I completed a Masters of Computer Science at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia. My focus was in Information Retrieval. My supervisors were Dr. Carolyn Watters and Dr. Michael Shepherd.
I completed a Bachelor of Science degree with a Double Honours in Mathematics and Computing Science at Saint Mary’s University in Halifax, Nova Scotia. I received my High School diploma from Hants East Rural High School in Milford, Nova Scotia.
I was regularly involved in student government and held the positions of Chair and Vice-Chair of the Dalhousie Chapter of the Association for Computing Machinery. I have also participated in ACM programming competitions for five years.
