About
I'm a research scientist at Roblox, where I work with Andreas Haberlen as part of their systems research group. I graduated with my PhD from UCSD in 2024 with my Advisor Alex C. Snoeren as part as part of the SysNets Group. My Research interests are at the intersection of distributed systems, networking, and operating systems. Prior to attending UCSD I completed an undergraduate and master's degree, working with Ivan Beschastnikh, at the University of British Columbia in 2016, and 2018 respectively.
