Biography

Dr. Green is Assistant Professor at Marymount University in the Department of Information Technology, Data Science, and Cybersecurity . He previously taught at Westfield State University in Massachusetts. Dr. Green completed his PhD in 2013 from Charles University in Prague. His time in Prague was spent as a Marie Curie Early Stage Researcher in the Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics and was funded through the CLARA (Common Language Resources and their Applications) EU project. His research was in developing new ensemble machine learning algorithms, specifically applied to language dependency parsing.

Dr. Green’s undergraduate degree was completed at NCSU in 2003 and masters degree in Computer Science from The George Washington University in Washington DC while working for the Bureau of Labor Statistics in 2006. Before attending Charles University in Prague, he spent a year in Iceland on a Fulbright Fellowship.
