I successfully defended my PhD thesis in March 2011, and I am now working as a software engineer at Google in New York. For future correspondence, please contact me at pweis@pweis.com.

My research interests are in computational and descriptive complexity, and in finite model theory. My adviser is Neil Immerman.

I organized the theory seminar in spring 2007. In the spring of 2009 I was teaching my own class, Introduction to Computation (CMPSCI 250).

I came to UMass in the fall of 2004 as an exchange student, supported by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and the German National Academic Foundation (Studienstiftung). From fall 2001 to spring 2004 I was a student at the University of Freiburg in Germany, earning my pre-diploma in the summer of 2003.
