About
I am a second year Ph.D. student in the UC Berkeley NetSys Lab, advised by Sylvia Ratnasamy. I am broadly interested in networking, computer systems, and cloud computing. My current research centers around supporting lower latency in compute clusters. I am interested in scalable cluster scheduling that can handle the high task turnover rate of sub-second tasks, and in the performance benefits of using short tasks for all jobs (even long-running batch jobs).
I am supported by a Hertz Foundation Graduate Fellowship, a UC Berkeley Chancellor's Fellowship, and a Google Anita Borg Memorial Scholarship.
I graduated from Princeton University in 2011 with a B.S.E. in Computer Science. At Princeton, I was advised by Jennifer Rexford and Michael J. Freedman.
