Paige Rodeghero is a Dean’s Associate Professor of Computer Science at Clemson University with a decade of experience blending academic research, industry practice, and startup leadership. Her work investigates software engineering productivity, remote work, onboarding, source code comprehension, and inclusive CS education—highlighting practical interventions like a VR system that nearly doubled programmers' bug-fixing productivity versus screen sharing. She founded DevLab@Clemson and a company, Software Developer Productivity Solutions, translating lab findings into tools and recommendations used by practitioners, including a short-term research collaboration at Microsoft Research. Paige’s research has earned multiple ACM SIGSOFT Distinguished and Best Paper awards, and she has a track record of turning classroom and camp programs into measurable gains for students with autism. With a PhD from Notre Dame and prior industry roles as a lead engineer at a startup, she combines empirical rigor with product-minded execution. An underappreciated strength is her ability to run human-centered, mixed-methods studies that directly inform both curriculum and tooling for real-world developer workflows.
