I am currently a graduate student in the Quantitative Psychology Ph.D. program at the University of Virginia. My primary advisor is Brian Nosek. I have my MA in Quantitative Psychology from the University of Notre Dame, while I was in their Joint Ph.D. program in Quantitative Psychology and Computer Science, working with Steven M. Boker.
I am a LIFE Fellow (more later).

HDTreeV (High Dimensional Tree Visualization) is an open source, multidimensional visualization tool that will be going online shortly. It was originally named TreeView and won the SGI Award for Computational Science and Visualization in 2005; the project submission can be found here.
This was work I did for my Masters. More later.
This is software that we wrote that allows for high-presence, (extremely) low-bandwidth, apparent 3D video conferencing with a single camera. Through the UVA Patent Foundation, we secured a provisional patent and have since then applied for a full patent.

I am one of the core developers of OpenMx, a free, open source structural equation modeling software package for R. I am the lead programmer on the graphical user interface and the community website/tools.

ToBioGraphics: This is a freely available utlity I wrote to parse and convert gene prediction output (genscan, geneid, and fgenesh) to be used in the Bio::Graphics module, a really great sequence feature visualization tool. An online version of the Bio:Graphics module is Wormbase's Sequence Feature Renderer. I used this renderer in a bioinformatics project and discovered that people generally do this conversion by hand (sometimes taking hours to do).

Coming soon
Wilhelm Wundt → Charles Spearman → Raymond B. Cattell → John R. Nesselroade → Steven M. Boker
Fairly soon, I'll have an Erdos number of 4:
Paul Erdos → Andrew M. Odlyzko → Gian-Carlo Rota → John David Fox
Thanks to Ryne for making that discovery.
