«ACM Fellows are selected and appointed directly from within the research community. This acknowledgment is incredible for me. Thinking more about it, it reflects a professional life of amazing mentors, working with many supportive and inspiring colleagues, and being very lucky with the many students, postdocs, and interns, I could work with and learn from.»
