Dr. Judith Pinn Carlisle began practicing yoga with her grandmother when she was a young child. She comes to Loyola Marymount University with over 20 years as a professor of information systems at institutions such as the Georgia Institute of Technology, Texas A&M University, and the University of Michigan-Flint. Originally, her work focused on applying natural language processing techniques to search engine development but broadened to include the philosophical and ethical considerations of computer-based information technologies. 

She is a graduate of the Yoga Studies M.A. Program at Loyola Marymount University. She now questions how computer, information, and yoga technologies can be combined to create a good life.
