Carrie Grimes graduated from Harvard with an A.B. in Anthropology/Archaeology in 1998, and an interest in quantitative methods for dealing with disparate data. She graduated from Stanford in 2003 with a PhD in Statistics after working with David Donoho on Nonlinear Dimensionality Reduction problems, and has been at Google since mid-2003. Dr. Grimes currently leads a research & technical team in Search Infrastructure at Google and is actively trying to figure out what criteria make a search engine index "good," "fast," and "comprehensive."
