I am a sixth (and final!) year PhD student in computer science at Harvard
University. I am affiliated to the SYRAH group. My advisor
is Prof. Margo
Seltzer.
My research interests are in file systems, cloud computing, and
distributed systems. I am currently working
on Provenance-Aware
Storage Systems.
My job application material are available here.
