I’m a Ph.D. student in the Department of Computer Sciences, University of Wisconsin-Madison. Currently, my research interests include operating systems, file storage systems, and distributed storage systems. With great luck, I’m advised by Prof. Andrea Arpaci-Dusseau and Prof. Remzi Arpaci-Dusseau. I used to intern in Microsoft Research working with an awesome mentor, Dr. Irene Zhang.
I’m generously supported by a Meta Ph.D. Research Fellowship.
