Teresa C. Mann (Piliouras) (Class of '72)
After graduating U-High, I went to the U of Ill for a degree in
Biology. My pre-med experiences (mice woke up from anesthesia
and ran away
from me while I performed brain surgery on them, etc., ) lead me to
conclude that I was not suited to the practice of medicine on Homo-sapiens.
So I continued my studies in other areas, obtaining a MBA in
MIS and a
Ph.D. in Operations Research, while working in big corporate
systems/engineering departments (working my way up the ranks from
programmer/analyst to Senior Management). I eventually started my own
consulting company (TCR, Inc. <http://w3.nai.net/~tcr/>),
which reflects my
long standing interest in data mining and intelligent information systems
(using fuzzy logic, neural networks, genetic algorithms, etc.). I am
an
Adjunct Professor of Computer Science at Iona College and Polytechnic
University, where I teach courses in network design and data mining.
I
recently completed a textbook, "Network Design: Management and Technical
Perspectives." I am happily married to Byron. We have a
7 month old
golden retriever, Katie.
