Strategic Services and Education Manager
Gladys is the Strategic Services and Education Manager for ITS-Research Computing at UVA. She
leads strategic planning for researcher training and outreach initiatives coordinating workshops and tutorials to support UVA’s computational research community. She adeptly manages a team of student workers, optimizing ITS-Research Computing’s efficiency by delegating routine tasks, thereby enabling staff to concentrate on domain-specific research challenges, all while grooming the next generation of HPC and scientific computing professionals.
With a strong background in biological sciences and expertise in bioinformatics, Gladys supports computational biology research, particularly in genomic data analysis and high-performance computing applications. She is also part of the Data Analytics Center (DAC) consulting team at UVA, advising on bioinformatics workflows and computational methodologies.
Since 2021, Gladys has served as the Founder and Chair of Virginia Women in HPC, a program she has successfully expanded across seven Virginia institutions. She organizes virtual events featuring distinguished technical speakers to champion women and allies in HPC and technology.
