I build high-performance storage and memory systems. I obtained my Ph.D. degree in 2023 from the Computer Science department of Rutgers University under the advisory of Prof. Sudarsun Kannan. Following the completion of my Ph.D., where my thesis work focused on building high-performance storage systems, I am excited to join École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) as a postdoc researcher in RS3Lab in early 2024. My research interests will continue to revolve around building high-performance storage systems, with a particular emphasis on the intersection with memory systems, security, programming languages, and large language models (LLM).
