Hi! I’m an incoming computer science PhD student at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. I’m interested in distributed systems and resource efficiency at scale. Before Carnegie, I completed my BS/MS at the University of Washington (UW) in Seattle. At UW, I researched datacenter energy efficiency with Tom Anderson in the UW Syslab. I also worked on digital misinformation and privacy enforcement with Franziska Roesner in the UW Security & Privacy Research Lab.
