Education
  • Ph.D. Candidate, Computer Science and Engineering, University of Michigan, advised by Professor Mosharaf Chowdhury, expected to graduate in May 2027.
Background
  • Fifth year PhD candidate in CSE at the University of Michigan. Research interests include building efficient software systems for deep learning, with a focus on optimizing time and energy management. Views power and energy as fundamental systems resources worth carefully optimizing and allocating, both in hardware and from software.
Miscellany
