I am a PhD student in the Computer Sciences Department at The University of Wisconsin-Madison and a Student Researcher at Google Systems Research Group. I am advised by Prof. Andrea Arpacı-Dusseau and Prof. Remzi Arpacı-Dusseau in The ADvanced Systems Laboratory.
My research interest is computer systems: Byte-Addressable Storage, distributed storage systems, and systems for ML.
Previously, I was a Research Collaborator at the Microsoft Gray Systems Lab, a Senior Systems Engineer at Hewlett Packard Enterprise RnD Labs, and a remote Research Fellow at Systems and Storage Lab, University of Texas at Austin.
